dont think you need a picture ..go straight to the carb with your fuel hose and fill the float chamber ..that will give you enough fuel to run it for 30 sec.....if you not feeding it with water take the leg off or you burn out the impeller in 20 sec....I stuff a hose onto the feed pipe from the head ....lots of parts suppliers with diagrams on the web.

Re: 20ho chrysler starting problem

Please give more details, history and if you have checked for fire/fuel/compression (and results if so). Even some pics of specifics. You have to give info to get info and replies IMO.

Details such as:

1. Year, model and type of ignition system. Some good Pics will show good info
2. History as when did it run last, appears to have been maintained
3. Fire/Fuel/Compression all checks fair or chow good signs of, because????

Fire away with specifics or more of what you know and have tried.

Good Luck! jow
