Well i got it to start and run for about a minute all on its own (i didnt have to feed gas to the carb manually) seemed to run good but it died when I idled it down. Doesn’t seem to want to start back up. Not sure exactly what happened. I got a video too.
That’s my carb for sure. They look identical to me as well.
The #21 is the low speed with the knob that sticks through the motor cover. The lower jet #37 it the one that I thought was supposed to be fixed however the motor finally started at about 1 full turn out. Guessing I need to pull bowl off and get that jet back out and make sure it is still clean. Can i post a YouTube link in this thread?
PS. My girlfriend was looking at the images above. #31 main jet is different. I have the 57 carburetor.
