It seem's that Nikki carbs on B&S don't work long after cleaning. Surgeing/hunting like poorly adjusted governor is the most prevalent. I've increased size of jets,installed filter with new hose between carb and filter,Seafoam and non-ethanol.
I've realized for a number of years that air cooled engines can have fuel problems but Nikki carbs are giving me fits. Are there options for changing to a different type carb or is that even necessary? On the other hand I might be getting less patient in my old age and problems have become like Brylcream.
Something I occasionally see in random carbs is something in bowl that look's like sand in color and texture but actually not gritty at all. Is it possible ethanol is leaching something out of plastic fuel tanks? Maybe it is in solution when passing through filter and sink's in bowl because it's heavier than gas.
