Grubee starfire has a copper U-shaped element in the carburetor which the bobber pushes up to stop fuel from flowing into the bowl. It was curved, so I straightened it thinking this was why I get so little power on the up-hill. Then the gas started to leak out. Took me the whole day to find out that it was leaking not from the gasket but from the priming button because I had allowed the bobber to rise to high by straightening it out. This rose the fuel well up above the priming button. Well, now I cant get it started, even though I rebent it. Lesson: Dont straighten the bobber wagger.
