Hello i have a 1973 4hp that i cant get fuel on the plug . New fuel hose ,primer bulb , so i guess my question is does anyone have exploded diagrams of this carb setup looks like alien technology to me . Also if any one as a good way to pull one of these without pulling half the motor apart?

If you got fuel to the carb and no fuel past the carb you almost certainly got either a plugged jet or a bad set on your float. I do not know your motor, I finally got a manual for mine and it has exploded diagrams on carbs and so on. Somewhere in the sticky notes up top of the forum there are links to manuals.

What is the history of the motor? Has it set up for the past few years? What is the compression? Have you been using it or is it one you came into recently?
