Oh for the days when the Brigs had a carb with a fuel/power adjustment screw to set how much fuel she got grrrrrrrrrrrrr
I have a Husky Zero Turn with a Kawasaki Twin V 21 which I think is 25 HP.....Recently she began starving for fuel, you know, bad idle cuz she hunts and the govenor keeps revving her back up,,,,,,,,wont run right wide open or when mowing unless you have the choke maybe 1/4 to 1/2 out, Im sure yall get the picture???
I already tried the easy stuff, checked cleaned n blew the fuel lines on BOTH sides of the filter and fuel pump n she has good clean flow there,,,,,,,,gumout down into the carb via the inlet fuel line,,,,,,,gumout via the carbs air intake,,,,,,,air n clean n gumout in the lines and carb inside n outside to the best extent WITHOUT removing the carb (looks like a 2 barrell).......
BUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT I cant find any external adjustment screws such as the power/fuel adjustment in the bowl or venturi etc area ANYWHERE GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR Its the kind of problem where in the old days you would simply turn the fuel screw out 1/4 turn and no more leaning out problems
Ive heard somethign about valve lash adjustments on those overhead engines but it seems more like I need to turn the power/fuel 1/4 turn out BUT THERE IS NONEEEEEEEEE
