CARBURETOR
The carburetor is a single barrel, side-draft type with a
cleanable metal screen air intake filter/spark arrester.
The choke is operated by a
12
VDC solenoid. This choke
solenoid is activated when the
ON switch
is
depressed and
stays activated so long as the
ON switch is held depressed.
Once the
ON switch is released the choke solenoid deactivates.

1.
The idle mixture screw adjustment. Remove the plastic limiter. Turn the mixture

yz
turns. Once running adjust the screw
no more
than

2.
Verify that the choke mechanism flutters when the engine is cranking on a start.
The choke return spring should rest against the actuator mounting bracket.
3. The throttle linkage's eye bolts need to be
