Tech H60 Starts but won't run

#1
Hello all. I'm refreshing a few Tec engines, and one is just kicking my ass. After refreshing, which included new ignition parts, carb rebuild, clean head, fresh paint, and new kill switch, two are running great after adjusting, but one will start at half choke, and idle at half choke, and that's it. If I take the choke off, and/or give it some throttle, is stalls out. Also on this, the kill switch isn't working. The engine was running before the refresh (I know !) Any help, ideas, would be much appreciated. Thanks

sounds like the main jet is clogged or the float level is too low, but try another carb if you have one. I bought one of those Oregon carbs off ebay but for what ever reason my h60 won't run right with it.

Thank you both for your suggestions. I took the carb apart, and since the parts were new, I just reassembled it, installed it, preadjusted it, and VAROOOM ! the thing started right up and with a little adjusting, now runs great. The float must have been getting hung up some how, but now is fine. Thanks.
