JOEPOE1977 0 #1 Posted Thursday at 08:55 PM 1990 Wheel Horse 310-8 CARBURETOR. Looking for a Kohler if possible or the best replacement for the carburator that is on the tractor. It has a Welbro on it. I am sending pictures of it. A Welbro if possible if new or the best replacement for it. You are the PROFESSIONALS I AM CERTAINLY NOT. I believe that it has the shaft choke on it. Thank you to all that help me all the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JOEPOE1977 0 #3 Posted Thursday at 09:19 PM Yes I know it is a 36 year old tractor. And I also know it is going to be a hard find. SAD they don’t make things like this no more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ri702bill 12,579 #4 Posted Thursday at 09:55 PM The general concensus here is that if the OE part is at all rebuildable, you are better off to go that route instead of the "it may work or not" offshore knockoff option... 2 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

953 nut 67,681 #7 Posted 11 hours ago There are several ways to deal with this situation. 1) Buy a cheap knock-off and wish you hadn't. 2) send it to @ebinmaine, he loves to rebuild them. 3) rebuild it yourself using some information from here https://gardentractorpullingtips.com/carbfuel.htm 4) pull the outside, with your air cleaner removed and engine running near wide open, spray some Seafoam into the throat of the carb until it almost stalls out, let it recover, repeat a couple of times. This may clear up any rough running condition you have. The huge clouds of white smoke will dissipate before the EPA arrives if you are lucky. This has worked for me on a couple of ocasions. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why do you believe your particular carb needs replacing? 7 hours ago, 953 nut said: 2) send it to @ebinmaine, he loves to rebuild them I appreciate the "mention"..... that's maybe not quite the phrasing I'd use. 🙂 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
