This is my first post. I have a MAC 2816 that started running badly. The first thing I noticed when this happened is that I had gas dripping from the air filter area. I think I need to rebuild the carb, and maybe a fuel filter. Is this what I need to do? Where can I order these parts?

markdalan,

Yes you will need a carby kit including the needle. I would cost about $30 for the kit including the needle and you should be able to get it from any mower shop or we can supply it.

The fuel filter is about $8-00. :Wavey:

If fuel has been left in the machine without being used for a long period of time it would have damaged the diaphragms and needle.

Regards,

Bruce
