wilm169 Posted June 4, 2006 Posted June 4, 2006 Well John I never found out, it is still running. Levi
HubbardRA Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 Levi, We missed you in the chatroom yesterday evening. John was there and we were discussing his mysterious part. Too bad you weren't there to trade ideas with him.
PatRarick Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 That part is a little "check valve" that goes over a hole in the choke plate in the carb. One piece is a rivet and the other is the valve. There is a spring on the rivet to keep the valve closed on the choke plate. As the engine is cranked with the choke closed, it regulates how much air is pulled in. It's not really necessary. If you can see the choke plate in the carb, you'll find two semi-circular slots with a small hole in the center. That is where the valve should be. Oops! Just saw on the post that TimJr identified that part. It's about the 15th reply. Pat
wilm169 Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 Yep I fell asleep Rod and got up just after they signed off.
oldone Posted June 5, 2006 Author Posted June 5, 2006 After taking it all back apart,TimJr has the right answer. This is what is left over from lunch. The rivit was found stuck in the head. the butterfly came out the muffler.
oldone Posted June 6, 2006 Author Posted June 6, 2006 wilm169, I looked everything over good. and it seems to be ok!
