11:23 i feel like you could've used a socket and ratchet to get in there and despite the minimal travel, a decent ratchet without slop would let you get the bolt out. i need to do this repair in the next few days, i'll let you know if a ratchet does the trick
No room for a socket and a ratchet at that spot, but a ratcheting SAE wrench might have worked. Unfortunately, I only had a set of ratcheting metric wrenches and none of those fit the bolt head very well. Thanks for reminding me. That's why I had a set of ratcheting SAE wrenches on my shopping list! I had completely forgotten why I'd written that. It's tough to get old...
Excellent video! Thank you for sharing the information!
You can used some 2 stroke fuel line to splice the broken pickup tube back on if you ever need to use the backup carb.
Taryl Dactyl would say that diaphram is hard as a carp.

It is not running on fumes at the end! There is a shallow overfill bowl integrated in the fuel tank, where a short pickup from the carb is going.
You are correct. "Running on fumes" is just an expression. It's not accurate.
this is helpful and appreciated.. I have the same model. Good carb and engine. nice video.
We were late this year, but next year we'll be good to go!
