Mitch 1 #1 Posted February 27 Hello everyone, I am new to the forum and looking forward to have fun restoring my Tiny Tiger Generator. The first thing I did was to degrease it and found that I am missing the carburetor jet. I was wondering if I could purchase that and a kit for the carburetor. Or if anyone knows where I could purchase a carb. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wallfish 705 #2 Posted February 28 Are you referring to the actual needle valve? Some of the older engines had a smaller needle valve on the side of the carb and a screw which holds the diaphragm assembly to the lower carb body. Newer models have the the needle holding the diaphragm assembly to the carb body. Maybe a pic would help determine what carb you have and what you're missing.

Wallfish 705 #4 Posted February 28 You need the gasket, the plastic check valve, the complete needle valve. Probably a diaphragm Have you opened up the cover to see if any other parts are missing in there? Arm, spring, bearing ball? I'll take a look around to see if I have a complete valve, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Found a housing and a needle ( #21, 25 ) but not the little parts, washer, o ring or spring ( 22, 23, 24 ). You can get those at any good hardware store or find something online Did you ever open the carb to make sure the other parts are there? Someone lost the valve so you should check EVERYTHING to make sure you don't need anything else. You can do everything else on your engine like cleaning the points if it doesn't have spark now, fix the recoil (DO NOT DRILL OUT THE RIVET), etc etc. Fire it up with a squirt of 32:1 mixed fuel to verify it's a running engine. And you can also check the generator when it fires off too. If it doesn't run or generate power, does taking my last valve make sense? Your welcome to it if you need it!

CNew 407 #7 Posted March 3 Sorry I’m late to the party, was on business travel. I’ll take a look around my parts as well to see if I have any of the pieces. FYI- in case you do need all the gaskets and plastic reed valve: https://www.ebay.com/itm/114847057767?_skw=ohlsson+rice+carburetor&itmmeta=01JNE803DJR4Q3T4XPX1KT1QZM&hash=item1abd6b0767:g:1zoAAOSwIGhgOwOk&itmprp=enc%3AAQAKAAAA8FkggFvd1GGDu0w3yXCmi1dQEOAC8QS1PfgADOOmUESYpF9BxHQioV10rfLg2aaBMCzLA51Tto4yDb6lZYdpJhMkxTynFCveVe3jM%2BM61xpIQn%2FfX1t26oOyYpH2nQZUGf0Zu5x38Yso4pXGrt7OK7ftKvO9WvzqDNyEdfpzcoi6x8eea9aS9Mo3BAHG0Ml4qwsWfOS18mifIP2xeZTK6L2pHMrGpsij1qn2%2FBsOA%2F8ZKJy2sOHz8uaPJrepLkZoEZVc92prp8RrZUl0gR7uKmlPcZbjZ96UFg76N8Vvlud--BPd8VTF%2FGc2036oAcN4LQ%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR4S3gMirZQ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mitch 1 #8 Posted March 3 (edited) I repaired the recoil, cleaned and gapped the points, repaired the spark plug wire and put a little gas in the carb and it fired right up. I forgot to plug in a drop light but I will tomorrow as I ran out of time. I will need a diaphragm carb kit, its stiff and dried out. B ut all the parts are there. Except of course the main jet.I don't think I need a reed valve. Edited March 3 by Mitch 1 Wallfish reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
