Hi

I need to change out the Priming bulb in my "plastic carb'd" mower.

Can anyone provide a little insight. Couldn't see a thread specifically looking at this topic.

yeah mate you just replace the whole plate cover its held on by the jet screw [the brass one in the middle] next to the bulb and the O ring around it and put the float back on you will see when you pull it apart

it should only cost around 10 dollars or so for the plate and O ring

any dramas let me know as im not very good at explaining things


Cheers, Emmo

is it beer-o-clock yet

Further more make sure you get a genuine plastic primer plate, the aftermarket ones I have had are not very good.

When removing the old cover watch for the little float and needle which may try and drop away, if the needle falls out you might have trouble finding it unless you are on a even surface like in the shed (Experience here lol)
