I picked up one these just yesterday but prior to, didn't find any reviews pro or con. Anyone tried one of these carbs? I would have preferred genuine OEM but figure a trial run with this knock off will probably be worth it.
Came with 'free gaskets' and a strangle little rubber plug.
It is nice and new--never seen a new one and /or one with such a highly polished throat (see last pic).
Two things stand out: the port for the needle valve contains not the usual needle, but what looks like an emulsion tube and it was installed flush with the body, with no spring.
Second: from the top of the carb there is visible a hole bored into the diaphragm pump housing just forward of the spring mechanism. It extends all the way to the mounting flange and I suppose that it's an alternate mounting hole.
If it's not needed, I guess that is what the rubber plug is for?
I'm puzzled by this new mixture adjustment, or if there's any adjustment at all.
Please assist on installation and use--it's all Chinese to me now. Thanks in advance.
