\nLet’s start by disassembling the carburetor.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"P1610720_R\" \"P1610719_R\" \"P1610718_R\" \"P1610717_R\"
\nThis carburetor is in excellent condition with no corrosion. That’s reassuring.<\/p>\n

\"P1610721_R\" \"P1610722_R\"
\nThe slide valve shows minimal wear.<\/p>\n

\"P1610723_R\" \"P1610724_R\"
\nThe slide valve seat is barely worn either. It’s surprising to find a specimen like this.<\/p>\n

\"P1610725_R\"
\nThe float looks great with no discoloration. This is definitely a quality unit.<\/p>\n

\"P1610727_R\" \"P1610728_R\"
\nThe resin cleans up nicely when polished. That’s great to see.<\/p>\n

\"DSC_1363_R\"
\nI’ve polished the float chamber as well. Since the customer said no remote control is needed, we’ll leave it as is.<\/p>\n

\"P1610729_R\"
\nAs always, this BST carburetor has the characteristic issue of unstable fuel level.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
