Thanks for your fast reply Bob. I meant that It runs well at start up and fuel tap turned on for about 10 secs then it hunts for 2 mins then to very low idle at full throttle. I checked the cable and it moves the throttle inside the carby very well. It just pours too much fuel into the motor drowning it washing the lubrication off the piston which can damage it. I dont want to do any more damage. There was a full tank and ran down to 3/4 in just 5 minutes. I checked the needle and floater and seems to work well to me. The needle length is about 10.70mm and I rang my local mower if they have other types of needles and they said they didnt have as theres just one type of needle for all victa carbys. I dont know what else to do, I might just give up and look for another 3rd second hand carby and try it out later. Thanks Pro
Gregg
