I’ll second that Just O&R! This group is awesome and Wallfish, Factory and Webhead are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I’m always learning and having fun!
I might be able to help you with a diaphragm too but it’ll be a few weeks since all my stuff is packed up for a move across the country. Just keep us posted what you decide to do. The eBay option with meatballbutch is also a fair price for the gasket, diaphragm and little valve piece if you’re looking to get it quickly.

FYI- here is part of what you need. This not the whole assembly but it is the adjustment needle itself. It’s missing the threaded section it screws into as well as the spring.

yes, I was quite bummed when that thing got damaged and lost in the mail because they don’t come up for sale very often. I think I’ve seen 2 NOS adjustment needles come up on eBay over the last year and that was one of them...

Yes, you’ll need the needle valve as well as the diaphragm and gasket. There is a great thread here on rebuilding the carburetor. Hopefully you aren’t missing any of the little pieces inside. Here is a link to the diaphragm from meatballbutch.

I don’t know if any sources for parts other than keeping a watch on eBay. This forum is also great and everyone tries to help each other out whenever possible with spares.
It’s funny and also sad- I bought a NOS needle valve a few months back on eBay but it ended up puncturing a hole in the envelope and getting lost during shipping. All I got was an empty damaged envelop. That was a royal bummer!
-
Nice photo Neons, that’s a beautiful area!
Yes. They’re a little finicky sometimes to dial in.
-
The largest of the 4 Philips screws in the photo is the one that should be a brass needle valve. It’s the screw that is closest to the heat shield, kind of right near the arm-pit of the heat shield. You can kind of make out the needle valve in the photo that O&R posted.
-
I’ve toyed around with the idea of getting an ultrasonic cleaner, maybe some day...
I should be done with the live the first week of Nov. and then the hunt for more O&Rs can continue...
-
That’s a really nice and clean engine. That should make that cart scream!
-
If you’re not in a rush I can check once I get moved and unpacked again.
-
What ever happened with these? Somehow I missed this chain. I hope Oldjimturbine is ok!
-
I have some of the little steel balls. I ended up buying a bag of each size. If you’re not in a hurry I could probably get you one in November. All my stuff is packed up for a move.
Man it’s hard not being able to work on these things and look at them...
If you’re in a hurry the diaphragm and gasket can be purchased on eBay...

Wow, now that is an awesome find! Keep trying, maybe he will give in some day. They would be cool to add to the collection.
-
Funny - I’ll be a fairly close neighbor to this “meatballbutch” seller on eBay. Mesa isn’t far from where I’ll end up.
-
-
I might be able to help as well but not for another month or so as all my O&R stuff is packed getting ready for a move.
-
Apparently ... you never know where the road is going to take you.... I’m going to miss the lush green and lakes and fall colors for sure. I guess tumble weeds and cactus are pretty in their own way too.
-
That Toby Cart looks really nice! That should be a cool ride whe you’re done, have someone take a video of you on it! Is there any sort of brake or do you just drag your feet?
-
Thanks JUST O&R! Headed to the desert.... I couldn’t agree more- I aim to get the workbench out and unpack the O&R stuff as quickly as possible. Even when I can’t work on them it’s fun just looking at them and planning the next project. Like you said, they are a good support system.
Cheers!
-
Wow, that’s one nice ride!
I haven’t been able to work on any projects lately. I am about to move across the country so all the O&R stuff is packed up.
-
I agree, thought the same thing the first time I mounted the engine. That threaded shaft and keyed collar are quite nice.
-
John,
Much appreciated, these photos are really helpful so I can make sure my tiller goes back together correctly. It looks like my handle linkage is correct so that’s good to know.
-
It might take a little time since I just started a new job but I may have access to another technology that might make for a great solution for these little vents.
-
Wow! Nice work, that turned out awesome! That home made cover really finishes out the saw.
I think I see an O&R outboard on the wall, is that already fixed up or next in line after the Toby Cart?
-
Yes, I’m also glad it landed with someone on here- nice grab Just O&R! Looking forward to great photos as you start to get’r all fixed up!
-
I never saw it either. I check frequently on a daily basis. I’m surprised this didn’t show up.
-
Wow, incredible research- truly amazing! Thank you David, this is really cool to know.
