Thanks for the education with previous posts and manuals. I recently purchased a carb kit and battery cover from the dealer and sent both back - the kit was $96 and the battery cover 174 , I just cannot justify the gouging . I have read posts of rebuilders on the site and thanks for the previous how to. The unit is running and i continue to massage it - in hopes that it will handle the grass chores . I did notice it runs well on 90 octane and when you introduce the deck to the motor it sometimes does not recover from govenor . Fuel bowl level good , govenor moving to compensate . timing good . I am not currently having any start problems but is electroni ignition a good change to make and who produces such a kit or is there a performance benefit ? thanks again for all the imput from the years of experience on this board - making it simpler for the next . By the way i did make a call to Cecil over a carb rebuild and he was excellent in his quick advise and i wanted to send the carb and went on to trans , oil, brakes and now i am back at making it run excellent -
