Hi,
Went to a Mom and Pop, Lawn Mower Shop looking for parts and came across a deal on an I/C 12HP Engine.

It already had a no name Chinese Carb on it.

Asked about any extra Walbro LMT Carbs and the Owner said he had a bucket full of bad ones?

Not good ones that just needed cleaning and a kit but ones he could not get running no matter what?

Were these Carbs known not to last???

Never had an ongoing problem with LMT carbs, just with people who don’t take care of them.

Never had a problem except those that sat with water in them. Some people just don't understand how to clean properly just I see a lot complaints about the Nikki carbs which I also never problems with cleaning and rebuild.

Hi,
Thanks, you Gentlemen, are probably on to something there.

The Chinese Clone I have is a Walbro LMT Clone instead of the Nikki, there is that I guess...

We will see!
