Hey all, getting closer to having the tote goat running decently but I've run into a snag. I had the engine running (read: idling) well, but when giving it the throttle, it'll accelerate for about 5 feet and then the engine starts hesitating. If I stop and let it idle for a bit, I can get another 5 feet, and so on. I took the carb apart and it was fairly clean, but I ran some wires through all the ports anyway. This helped me realize that what I thought was a sealed off mounting screw hole :no: was actually a screw hole communicating with the jet and into the slit in the butterfly valve area :doah:. I thought having that open to the atmosphere might have been causing my stuttering issue, so I plugged it with a screw. After trying several different adjustment levels, I couldn't get the engine to start up. So, I took it out to see if I could get it running again without the screw, and after two pulls my rope broke. So, while I'm fixing the starter I thought I might come here to see if anyone knows what goes in this hole? Is it a needle to control the air:fuel? Should I not expect any decent results from using a normal machine screw in here? I've tried to find parts diagrams online but the ones that show up for this model number do not look like the carb I've got, with the 90 degree turn midway. Oh, and don't mind the DIY air cleaner :thumbsup:
