[QUOTE="tima, post: 9818, member: 880"] Hi Got the carb rebuilt and now it starts first time every time and even without the choke. It was pretty dirty inside but i really did not find any bad parts. Kind of got screwed from bobcat though. The carb kit was missing a lot of peices. For instance why would it have the metal caps for the throttle seals but no seals. Only had 1 secondary diaphram , should have been 2. Missing several orings. Missing hard sealing washer for main metering needle boss. The seal for the secondary metering rod was the wrong size also. Funny though that the package was heat sealed unless it had been opened and resealed. I have seen that happen before. I have my bobcat dealer checking the warehouse to see what is going on. Thank goodness i was able to reuse some of the original parts and get it back together and running. I did not take any chances though and pressure / leak tested it with soap before reinstalling it. With that carb nestled down on top off the engine and under the exhuast manifold the last thing i needed was a leak and a fire. The only think that doesn't act right is the idle mixture adjustment.
