Ed Kennell 47,420 #1 Posted 2 hours ago The 5 HP B&S on my Trac Vac was becoming hard starting and needing choke. So I started to remove the carb and found it was loose from the block which is probably the problem. The two bolts were loose about 3 turns. While I was in there, I decided to remove it and do a cleaning. I could use a manual and pictures of the throttle and governor linkage to help me do the reassembly.

squonk 48,168 #3 Posted 2 hours ago This reminds me of the neighbor lady who borrowed my Tecky powered push mower years ago. She mowed part of her yard in the morning. After lunch she comes over and says it won't start, I go over and the carb is laying on the deck. I reinstall it and she mows some more. Next day she's back and ir won't start again. I go over and the carb is on. I pull the cord and the whole engine spins around! 3 bolts had fallen out. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Horse is already out of the Barn, but... And THAT is exactly why we need to pull out the Cell Phone & click off a couple of pictures at different angles prior to disassembly. Priceless in that situation. Cell phone pix are better than the digital camera in that you can zoom up & around for fine detail. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
