thanks srdavo
i knew it would be worth my time joining this website. in case something went wrong.
thanks also for the pics, helps alot. i have same parts. ill do that right now and see if it helps.
on a side note, it leaks from the gas line, which i should replace, and the bowl, and the airfilter, but when fuel is off no leak at all. if the feul valve is slightly open it leaks like all hell
