I have found a service bulletin about the later carb diaphragm membrane assembly part no #400102, used to replace the separate diaphragm membrane (#95-2) & diaphragm disc (#148-1) that may be found in later 1HP engines (or 3/4HP & 0.85HP engines that were serviced at some point in their working lives). If you find one of these diaphragm membranes with the disc bonded to it, be sure to transfer the disc to the replacement diaphragm. David Edited July 26, 2019 by factory Added picture.

JUST O&R 237 #52 Posted July 27, 2019 I need help!!!! does someone have a breakdown of the early carburetors the needle valve assembly that I have is to long . Somewhere I must have misplaced it. And there is a hole on the side of it that I have never seen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
factory 487 #53 Posted July 27, 2019 That's an early carburettor as you already know, which would have originally had a side mounted needle valve, the diaphragm bowl has a screw in place of the later needle valve shown in your pictures. It's possible it got converted to the later style needle valve at some point in the past, in this case the hole in the side would have a small screw to blank it off, the later needle valve assembly should fit if you unscrew the needle part before fitting. Here are some pictures of a side needle valve carb I rebuilt sometime ago, if you need any more pictures let me know. All the parts (note: that rubber check valve in these goes bad the same as the diaphragm does). Lower half showing side needle valve. Complete early carb (note: the earliest ones didn't have the primer button, but a modification kit was produced for a very short time to add this). David P.S. I'm sure we can find you a side needle valve should you need one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CNew 404 #54 Posted July 27, 2019 That’s very interesting David, thank you for the detailed photos. I’ve never seen one of these really early carbs before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JUST O&R 237 #55 Posted July 28, 2019 Thank you very much I was not sure this thing was take apart 35 years ago. and I don't have all the parts but that makes complete sense now. I have got a few of the newer one this one just looked different. Thanks much do you have a part # for that needle valve? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looks like you found the correct one, have a look at the 1961 parts list & separate pdf of the parts diagram, it not the easiest to follow and is very faint in places due to being printed in blue, it's probably the nearest one to your engine. #21-20 is the spring to go with the needle valve.

JUST O&R 237 #58 Posted July 29, 2019 Thanks David got a chance to dig in my boxes found 2 springs. ( THANKS VERY MUCH) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
factory 487 #59 Posted July 29, 2019 Good to hear you found some. I just remembered that they re-used that spring on later carbs for the governor mechanism, though by 1971 you could no longer obtain it as a spare part, see post #5 linked below.

factory 487 #70 Posted October 2, 2019 I had noticed the ebay seller was located in Arizona, which is why I don't think it's any of the regulars who post on here. Of course the source of the gaskets is mentioned on the forum, so someone not on the forum could have contacted Eric "The Gasket Man" directly and bought a load to sell on ebay, hopefully any buyers of the carb kits on ebay will find us if they need further help with their O&R's.

Joe added a link to the old forum in his ebay ads when we started. That was a major advertisement to drive people to it. Maybe contact the seller and ask? I'm just glad to see them being offered as I just don't have the time to do it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JUST O&R 237 #72 Posted October 3, 2019 Will I Know if I was looking for parts and had run into that on ebay would not have thought about it I would have grabbed a them. And the price is not bad! but now I know were to find carb parts. Sorry but some one will do it! at lest there not coming out of china. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can't send helpful information to sellers either. David Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just thought I would ask if they would like to add something to the description to help people find the forum, should they need any help with their O&R's, same as Joe (Webhead) did in the past. Note eBay doesn't like direct links any-more, they tend to automatically remove them. If you could ask for me that would be great, thank you. David Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
