happy new year friends. first post and appreciate the opportunity!
i just finished a partial carb rebuild on my old Tecumseh. cleaned holes in brass-bowl-nut. replaced valve needle (i lost original. doh!). adjustments are 1.5 turns out. she WANTS to run but best i can get is 10 seconds of really rough idling/spitting/belching. spark plug is very wet afterwards. fuel is NOT leaking out of carb when engines not running.
i guess she's getting too much gas, yes? at an impasse here ...
a million thanks in advance for any help!
best regards,
mike
