so I picked this up the other day at a local auction for 100$. started right up with a new solenoid but ran into some issues that need fixed(as to be expected).
1. I cant get the carb tuned (didn't want to rev like it should so I turned idle up and it sputtered gave air adjustment screw a tweak and died completely) so need some input on that
2. starter nut stripped out and from what im finding prices are crazy:thumbdown: for just the nut and a new gear(can buy a new starter for price of nut and gear!!!)
3. what oil do I run in the transaxle? if its anything like engine oil im sure it needs changed
(sorry for the mess in pics been working on a lot and never got cleaned up haha)
model # 917-257030
lil update, got a new starter ordered for 60$ (cant complain about that)
going to work on cleaning up engine area of the gunk and some overspray on the hood in the next few days until I get to put I all back together and deal with tuning the carb. anyone have input on how to tune it properly? looks like it has a freshly rebuilt carb
anybody have an idea of how to get the carb tuned to a starting point and where to go from there? any input is appreciated! got her all back together but cant get the carb tuned to save my life. will start up run for a few seconds and die
