I am working on a craftsman mower with electric start and self propulsion.
My problem is the carburetor. I rebuilt it and have the thing running. Problem is the darn thing dumps fuel out the air intake. I set the float level as prescribed. Dumps. I set the float with a number five drill bit. Dumps. I have tried everyting I can think of and it still dumps. Does anyone have an idea whats going on?
I thought maybe I may have put the needle seat in upside down. As far as I know the grooved edge faces the interior of the float bowl......Right.
This thing has thrown every problem in the book at me and is driving me nuts. I have been working on it every day for two weeks. I am so close but so far away.
HELP
