    Not sure I understand carbs well enough!!

    Thanks so much!! I just ordered one. Should be here by the weekend. Without the correct filter housing to copy, do you know if the notch is just angled to go into the main air inlet or does it do something trickier? I was thinking that I could drill/cut a slot on an angle towards the throat...

    Well, here is the update. I picked the mower up and it, of course, runs great with the replacement engine. The guy at the shop did say that there was not a nest or any debris under the shroud or in the fins. It was a connecting rod that broke and he said that he had seen this before engines. He...
