    So, I have a stock CT200U, and the kill switch stopped working. We did notice the green ground wire was not connected to anything at that time. I know someone that had experience in small engine repair, and he insisted that he could fix the kill switch. He removed wires and reconnected them, I...

    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...
