It took me 3 tries to get it,that both carbs each time.It was a gassy job.I sprayed carb cleaner in every part of carb and then took the two flathead screws out that are located in float bowl,with a small piece of copper wire,ran it through all the little holes,they were clogged up.Put it all back together,took a spray bottle shot some gas in the carb,cranked the first time and ran like a charm.
