I guess what I should have done is try and findf a rebuild kit reather than a complete carb, but the problem is the carb only has LMJ stamped on it, so how do I find the exact model number to try and find a kit? There's some pics of the carb details in a previous post. Thanks.

Here's all I can find on the original carb as far as numbers go....as mentioned, nothing coming up on

And yes....it uses a primer bulb.

Thanks again Rivets... That is the carb I ordered.....15003-7099...see amazon info below. Obviously not the carb I need for this application. Also not available on Walbro website. Specification: Item Type: Carburetor Material: Aluminum Color: As shown in the picture Weight: Approx. 217g / 7.7oz...

Thanks Rivets......here are the engine details: Model #: 911134 Serial #:003082 These are directly off the engine. the local shop says no replacement carbs are available, but the needle and seat are.....at a cost of $100CAN!!!! Any help appreciated.

Hi all, As a result of the above issue, I have got a new carb, as I suspect the needle and seat to be the issue. I ordered from Amazon, and made sure the replacement carb would fit my machine. Now that it has arrived, I notice some differences between the two. The replacement has separate...

So....in the ongoing saga of this mower.....I drained all the gas and old oil, purged the cylinder, put in fresh oil, cleaned the plug and re-installed, and it fired right up....no white smoke. Neighbour took it home....a few days later he fired it right up and started mowing, but after a while...

Hi all, Have a ariens model 911134 with a Kawasaki FJ180 V motor I'm looking at for a friend. He said it started briefly after winter, then died, then when restarted a cloud of white smoke, died and now wont restart. I pulled thew oil dipstick.....way overfilled. I pulled the plug......cylinder...

Hi, I have the above captioned mower that has a priming bulb. After repeated priming the plug does not even look wet....however if I put a few drops of gas in the cylinder it fires right up. How best to trouble shoot this? Thank you

Hi, I have an older trimmer that has a priming bulb. After lots of primes it will not start, until I put a few drops of gas into the cylinder. When I pull the plug it looks light grey....I suspect that the priming bulb is not priming because of an air leak....I think around the grommet that goes...

Thanks Rivets. I thought they were good....so my bad!!! I'll replace both sides, and still wondering if there's a correct way to place them on the axle....part # in or out, or if it doesn't matter? Also ....the grease.....I'm assuming yes....a little? As I'm recovering from a stroke a few months...

Hi all, Long story behind the work done on this mower...the most recent thing done to it was to replace the wheel bearing on this wheel....but unfortunately used it today and still grinding. I thought the pinion gear was okay....when I activate the drive with wheels in the air there is no...

SO............used mower today, and the grinding noise is still there on the left rear drive wheel only. This is despite a new bearing, and the gears inside the wheel looking in really good shape. I'm at a loss to determine what else could be wrong....it seems to be making the plastic gear cover...

Finally decided to strip the mower down...removed the HOC plate and dropped the axle down.....then pulled the axle through and was able to lay the HOc adjustment plate in the vice and get an 1 1/4" socket and breaker bar on the nut...finally came loose. Bearing replaced, and lesson learnt!!! :)...

i've spent pretty much the whole day trying to get the nut end of the HOC for the new bearing undone.......penetrating oil, heat.......not moving. The new HOC with bearing threads through the mower deck and height adjustment plate......but as you see in the photo, has very little meat to get...
