Next thing you know they will be 3D printed. I'm glad I have saved every carb good or bad. May be worth a fortune for the great grandkids someday.I think it costs them more in bad will than the few dollars they saved.

Well I took the plastic carb off cleaned it really good. I put it back on and the blower started up after about 20 primes and ran. I shut it off and let it sit ,sure enough the bottom of the carb got wet with gas. I am going to wait and see how the carb works I ordered from eBay.I think it costs them more in bad will than the few dollars they saved.
I primed it twice and it wouldn't start so I primed it two more times still nothing so I pushed the primer a bunch more and it started. The gas first started leaking after it was off for awhile. I would have thought four primes would have done it but wouldn't start.If you prime the carb with more than 4 pumps of the primer, you will get gas leaking from the carb, that is normal.
Are you sure the bottom of the carb is not wet from over priming?
I ran across that problem try changing the spark plug cleared up my starting problem.I primed it twice and it wouldn't start so I primed it two more times still nothing so I pushed the primer a bunch more and it started.

Do you remember what brand of plug you used. I think there is a champion in there nowI ran across that problem try changing the spark plug cleared up my starting problem.
I do not remember the brand. It did say for Honda engine, checked the length of threads, were the same and the electrode.Do you remember what brand of plug you used. I think there is a champion in there now
Well I put my new Chinese carb on and it fired up after about 5 primes, I didn't think that was too bad figuring the air had to get out.Hello All
I am looking to purchase an aftermarket carb for an old toro 3650 I picked up. eBay offers a bunch of cheap ones is one any better than the rest? OEM carbs are over a hundred and I don't know if the machine is worth the expense
I bought a tach and adjusted the RPM'S seems to be running better.
