    Steve2018 got a reaction from Stormin in Engine only running on choke   
    191707 6030-01 is the code
     
    I had a look today at it,  looked at my eurocarparts clear filter and its already got dirt floating in it so decided to blow down the pipe,  there was some resistance then no resistance so put the pipe back to the carb and the filter filled right up which looked like a highly improved flow started it and again revs hunting up and down :-(
     
    Next step I removed the carb and found - 
     
    1 - No gasket between the carb and head so just metal on metal.. 
     
    2 - big hole in the exhaust silencer (but guessing this would be just a noise issue and why its so loud rather  than causing a running problem..)
     
    3 -  Probably the main cause of the complete problem,  the High speed needle valve on the bottom of the carb was fully in!! 
     
    Took it apart anyway while it was off and cleaned it out,  some  dirt but less than I thought
     
    Put it back together,  set needle to 1.5 turns and idle needle to 1 turn and started it and it now runs without the choke,  increased the revs but then it started bogging down and firing black smoke out (guessing too rich)  so turned high speed needle in 1/4 turn and now revs to full revs but some blueish looking  smoke starts to appear at full revs
     
    It says to set the idle RPM to 1750 rpm,  how do you know when its at 1750rpm? Do you need a special  tool for that? 
     
    Thanks again
    Just waiting for the carb gasket to arrive as well..

    Checked the flow this morning,  pulled the fuel pipe off the carb and the fuel came running into the filter and out. 
     
    Was going to blow down it but didnt want the taste of petrol before work lol.... 
     
     
    Yea I think I will remove the filter and run without one until I get it running then fit the red briggs and stratton filter
     
    Thanks

    Steve2018 got a reaction from Anglo Traction in Resistor spark plug or non resistor?   
    Thanks all I went with the Resistor  type NGK resistor gapped to 0.76mm as it was the easiest one to get hold of
     
    Just need to stick my new filter on (the one on now is falling to bits)  new breather tube on (a mouse chewed through the one on the engine) and new oil breather gasket
