think its late 70's but not sure of exact year. also has numbers 37-13020, m755397678 and 25-EL on it. Had carb cleaned last fall and within a couple weeks was clogged? again. motor started last week with choke out and gas all the way forward in neutral, but started missing at high speed, then stalled out at idle speed and wouldn't start again. I have had mechanics tell me that this particular carb is troublesome. I guess I need to learn how to take it apart and clean it myself. The plastic plate connected to the choke which screws onto the front of carb is cracked and only held on by one screw so want to replace that too. Is there a case to be make for buying a new or rebuilt carb, or should I live with this one ? thanks
