Installing the Carburetor
July 25, 2021

The installation of the carburetor was easy for me because prior to my ordering of the parts I had read and watched the videos of how it is done. I will recommend for DIYers to take time and watch videos of the experts on how it is done especially "Sears videos". As soon as I removed the old carburetor and replaced it my lawn mower started with only one pull. I saved $150 from the repairs. You can do it yourself.

Quality parts and easy to install

Clean the mower thoroughly before starting the work. It took some time, but it insured that I didn't get any gunk in the engine.

Started on the first pull
March 31, 2021

My mower STOPPED last fall. I wrestled with replacing it, since a pro rebuild would cost 1/3 of a new model. Knowing almost nothing about a carburetor, I took a risk. All the parts I needed (and more) came with the kit. I took my time following the directions. It started on the first pull of the cord, and did not stop until I was ready to stop. Your agent was wonderful in helping me with my purchase.
