The carb kit came with two main body gaskets. One has an extra hole. The old one came off in pieces. Which one do you use? I have a 190412 Type 2925 Code: 85061109. One gasket has part number 27918 stamped on it, which matches the part number shown in the original manual. The other gasket has no part number but has a hole which alines with a vent in the upper carb body.

@izogthedestroyer Use the gasket which aligns with the vent hole. There were new and old variations of this carburetor which is why you were given two gaskets with the kit. The older carbs didn't have the vent. Thanks for stopping by my Videos!!

shouldnt you adjust the fuel/idle with the air cleaner on? every time i adjust without an air cleaner, i end up re adjusting anyway when i put the aircleaner on.

[ZippoVarga]

@thegenrl With a new air filter, the setting shouldn't change much if at all. With replacement of the original used filter, you may have to make further adjustments. If you have to make a large adjustment after replacing the air filter, then you might replace the old with new. The foam element filters can be cleaned with soapy water, dried, then re-oiled. The paper elements should just be replaced. Hope this helps with your question. Cheers!

Hey Zippo try using a 20lbs sledgehammer when you tap that carb float, it works like a charm !!! And instead of striking up, try downward strokes. Give it a good decent swing, that carb will never give you anymore beef for sure !!!

Hi Zippo! I found this video by accident while looking for help with my snowblower carburetor, which is identical to yours. The engine starts easily enough but stalls after a minute or two or when I put a load on it. Seing your video has given me a lot of ideas of what to look for in the carb. I've already removed and cleaned it out but I'm going to take it off again and rebuild it very carefully using this video as reference. Thanks a lot, and you have a new subscriber!
