    It starts and runs only as long as the carb cleaner lasts, which is only a squirt really. I took the carb off and went over it again for mistakes. Discovered a small hole in the top of the aluminum expansion plug. Pulled it out, cleaned and blew all, replaced the plug. No difference. Currently trying to rig a different JW carb to fit. (the gas line connections are different) to confirm if it is the crankshaft seal.

    I’ll also try to fit the JW 22 carb to another motor to see if it works. That should eliminate the carb question.

    When Johnson eliminated the high speed jet did they have to modify the rest of the carb or motor?

    Thanks for your help.
