I admit I got frustrated with this mower however I did not give up on it. I have been following the most recent Suzuki mx120 post and executed all instructions to the best of my ability.
So over the past couple of days I have been soaking the carburettor in carby cleaner with every possible part removed and soaked separately. I was careful to remove all plastic components and not expose them to carby cleaner.
The more I continued to soak the more gunk kept coming out. I also used a very fine drill bit clean the ports throughout the carby including the jets. A substantial amount of black gunk came out during this process.
I carefully put everything back together which isn�t really easy with this engine, being careful to set the governor arm correctly as per our previous discussion.
The result �
1) A first pull start
2) Kept the choke on few a couple of seconds and then slowly eased it off back to the full speed setting. No hunting at all.
3) Moved it down to idle after adjusting the mixture screw and it was pretty good for a 2 stroke I thought!
4) The biggest test was mid range running and it was pretty good. The engine barely hunted at all.
Note: I haven�t put the engine under load after this carby soaking exercise however I suspect it might be ok!
Nothing else I should double check?
