Got both of my H60s running today (subjects of an earlier thread). Both have brand new H60 knock-off carbs. After running the solid state H60 back about a month and a half ago, I had way too much fuel even with both circuit screws barely open. So, I reset the floats on both carbs to be a bit lower than factory setting.
The solid state engine fired second or third pull (it's the one with the H70 piston). I had to set the idle screw at about 1/4 turn and the main is about 3/4 turn to get it to run at idle. While no longer spitting fuel out the carb, it seems to bog/flood when the throttle is opened.
The points engine took a bit longer to get going, but same issues: idle at 1/4 turn or less and main almost all the way in. It doesn't spit fuel but the plug shows real rich. I could get this one to throttle up and hold though it misfired a couple of times.
Set the float even lower to be open the main some more???? Punt??? I have not installed an air cleaner yet on either engine.
This is the carb: Carburetor for Tecumseh H30 H50 H60 HH60 632230 632272 Engine + Gasket | eBay
My other H60 (on the Trail Bike) has a different carb that does not have the tube on the air cleaner side (I swapped throttle plates to make this one work with the linkage) :
Carburetor W/ Gasket for Tecumseh 631827 632615 632589 632208 H30 H35 H60 | eBay
Suggestions appreciated.:thumbsup:
