Lastly,
So the carb was removed, and i tried to dremEL out the set screws like everyone does, but my screws were broken off below the casting and even with a dremel it was tough to get into the screw to try and get a screwdriver in the new slot i made, alas,, no luck, so i used choke cleaner and could hear the float moving around, i reinstalled the throttle cable and choke cable exactly, but still a fuel overflow, so i'LL BUY A new carb, but,,when i tried starting it i noticed the thumb throttle had zero tension on it, and the engine was raving crazy.
when i reinstalled the throttle on the carb there was a needle valve that went right into the hole in the carb and the plastic sleeve and spring just screwed right in w/o issue long with it.. and when removed and pushing the throttle the needle valve did move.
Did i install something wrong with the throttle going into the carb to make the carb rev to max when i start it now?
or is the real issue still in the carb, with a new one on its way anyhow.
thoughts?
ps-when it starts and revs to max the only way to slow it is throw the choke lever to the opposite direction, and the throttle level does nothing..?
ugh...
