How do I fix a stuck needle valve on my MS carb on my TO35?
Gas is running in the tube to the carb but the carb will not let any in, i.e., when I open the brass plug on the carb's bottom no gas runs out. The screen at the carb is clean.
When it sits on my bench I can not blow air (from my mouth) through the gas inlet unless I manually open the needle valve with my finger nail.
I thought that a cranking engine would open the valve.
How can I get the valve to slide more smoothly?
Thanks for your help.
