I remember one night about 11 PM I was driving about 25mile away to a job site to clean snow for the company i worked for. The snow was realy comming down, the hyway was a slippery mess. It was bed time but I was just on my way to work. Temprature about 10 degrees. I had just moved back from Florida two years earlier. I slipped into a trance while i was driving and when I got there I started kicking myself in the ass.

Hey there hcd724 beware that if the engine is getting wet when your using the machine that could cause rough running . Shield off the motor and that will solve that problem. What i did with my carberator was take it apart and blow out every hole with carb cleaner. if you look in the carb from the choke side you will see 2 small holes on the right. make sure the are clear. blow in the needle valve areas. when its back together back of the main jet needle 1.5 turns (bottom side needle. ) Back off idle adjustment needle on the (side of carb )1.5 turns. this should let the motor start. Let it warm up turn the idle needle  in  until engine changes sound an starts running rough then turn it back untill it starts doing the same thing . Then turn it back in to the center point.   Now exellerate engine High speed and do the same with the bottom fast idle needle screw. Worked for me. I was having to run mine with choke 3/4 on too before taking it all apart and adjusting. Also I removed the blower housing and cleaned the ignition coil and re adjusted gap. Starts on the first pull.

Hey  Guys I turned the seat so the grove went towards the carb and replaced the float (apx. $6.00) and the problem is solved.  I submersed old float in gas all night and it seems to be fine. oh well.  If you look at the diagram of carb you will see the open end of the needle retainer clip facing the choke side of the carb. Good point niper99. Sounds to me you may have a cracked housing. I was fearing that because if the needle dont stop the gas there seems to be no other option. If yours is flooding while its running and cant controle it with the high idle setting, you may have to replace carb. But if it is only leaking like mine was when its not running you can put an in line shut off valve for when its sitting idle. Thank you all for the great support. This is an awsume site. Ill be bringing more problems here im sure.

Thanks for that info> Ididnt think of checking for fuel in the crank case. I did put the seat in backwards I hope thats my problem. I didnt hear anything sloshing around when i shook the float but when i pull it apart again ill try submurging the float in container of fuel for a while and take a closer look. I can adjust float by bending the float tab. Im assuming the float should be at an equal horizontal distance from carb all around when it closes the fuel entry?   LA
