I am disappointed with the NAPA carburetor kit I got for the 961.
I posted a few days ago about issue with needle and seat leaking, put the old ones back in tonight, and works fine.
The kit came with new idle jet screw, well it still ran too rich with idle screw all the way in, I found the old one, and check the lengths. The taper on the new one was shorter than the original, it would bottom on the threads before seating all the way. The original will kill the
engine when screwed all the way in, like it should. I had always assumed that if the tractor did not kill when the screw was all the way in, there was a problem elsewhere, but it can be the wrong geometry on the screw causing this.
As stated, who would have thunk it?
