Briggsboy,

On the carby does it have Mexico stamped on it?

What type (Brand) of fuel filter did you use?

Regards,

Bruce

briggsboy,

Ok first off I would be using a walbro fuel filter and then replace the carby diaphrams and filter screen in the carby.

You will find the basic settings for the carby by doing a search on the board.

Bruce
