[Linked Image]


This is the image of the carb. As I mentioned in my first post, I did not recall a spring loaded set screw when re-assembling the carb. The images included in the response included one drawing with the set screw circled. I just don't see any similarity between the two.

I am hoping the posted image will assist in troubleshooting. It may even be something unrelated to an idle screw.

Most perplexing is the fact that before the rebuild(which was unnecessary) the mower ran just fine at the proper factory settings(whatever they are). In other words I was not alarmed by the operating characteristics at the time, unlike presently. If the image is not clear enough, I can reposition and resubmit.

Hope this helps.
