Appreciate your input, I'm now more confident in buying a one that works.

Thanks

Hi Randy,
I'm actually shocked at how well it runs now after the swap. I didn't have to adjust anything, it starts right up and actually idles. Runs a lot smoother down the road as well.

Right on Joe !!

After my stroke I'm limited on what I can do.

Normally I'd try to fix my present carb but it's all corroded inside.

I'll be giving one a try !!

Thanks
Randy
