Nah they dont have the choke, but with the button primer you do not need a choke. Keep an eye open, i will snap a pic or two and post them up.
Is the manifold on yours the same with the plate over the top of the carb coming off the inlet maniold?? its got the kill wire and a linkage on it that the cable goes too. Pulls on the srping and the rod from the govenor goes back to the butterfly shaft. Its got screws for the idle and what not. If its similar, just remove the choke relay rod and keep it aside for when you find a new carb.
Having now seenthe damage and knowing now that it has no jet in the retaining bolt i can offer another suggestion.
Im sure you have a selection of drill bits. What size is the hole??? what fits in cleanly or what would fit in while removing stuff all.
If youve got limited tooling to size it up accurately, i would suggest you take the carb body to a machine shop or engineering suppy place. To do it right id say you would need a flat bottom drill oreven a reamer.
Go the next biggest drill bit that will clean the hole up enough to make it clean enough to tap out for another fine thread bolt. Theres enough meat there to take a thread, just not enough to take a helicoil and bring it back to the size thread it was. Because its just holding the bowl on a short bolt will do the job (you may have to get it relief cut up around the top thread near the head). You can get copper or fiber washers in any size you like.
What would the old size have been?? 3/8unf?? If you can tell me what the thread was i can go look on the chart out in the shed for the new thread going on what the possible diameter of the hole is now.
IE what its at now should be good enough to be the drilling size for tapping it the next size over/up. Its not structural and does not need to be done up tight so if you do not quite have full depth of a thread cut in the meat of the carb body it will not stop it working.
I hope that makes sense.
In short, for $40 is say you could buy a drill bit and a thread tap and take it the next size up, be it imperial or metric, and get the bowl back on there.
Cheers, Bob.
