I rebuilt the Carb because it had not been done in maybe 10 years, but on top of that, it was running quite poor. The low speed needle was worn down bad and need to be replaced. As for the not winterized, yes I did not do that; I was under lots of stress at the time. SO... I think that is were I'm going to start and I need to check that float again, fine point made...
Also can anyone tell me why the bushings I order (even though they are original replacement parts) are too big and have to be modified? I mean is there a need for the bushing on the needle?

by the way I did notice oil like stuff dripping from the drain plug on the high speed needle inlet at the bottom of the bowl. This maybe were air is leaking in?

also at higher speeds under load the motor losses lots of power and slows.

thanks for the advice I will keep this updated.

Mike
