Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Tecumseh 6.5 GTS Toro lawn mower carb, concave side, concave surface


Question
Do you know where I can find a diagram of the carb for this engine. I am trying to rebuilt the carburetor. The mower is flooding. I put a kit in once but I think I put the small needle & seat seal in backwards. Any info you can provide me will help. Thanks

Answer
Hello Matthew:

Since this is a Tecumseh Engine, I have 2 PDF Site Addys that May Assist and Interest You. They are; 1- http://www.tecumsehpower.com/CustomerService/BSI.pdf and 2- http://www.cpdonline.com/692509.pdf The Seat Usually has a Flat Side and a Concave Side where the Needle Reats when Seated. The Concave Side is Supposed to Face the Needle. This Side of the Seat is Designed to Match the Needle Face and Allow for Better Seating of the Needle. The Concave Surface is in the Center Hole of the Seat. Hope this Helps. I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Let Me Know What Happens, Please. Thanks.

Good Luck
