Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Tecumeh Engine, yacolt wa, exuast


Question
Hi John: I have an old HH60 tecumesh tiller and the problem that I'm having is the gas fills the float bowl and continues to overfill to the point that it goes into the exuast and to the crankcase. I bought it for $65 and it runs as long as I don't put to much fuel in. I'm hopeing that it need a new carb. It does not have a fuel filter on it also. Any suggestions? Would be great. Thanks, Steve

Answer
 Hello Steve:

 The Carburator Float Needle and Seat need to be Replaced. You can Clean and Rebuild this Carburator if its not Rusty on the Inside. If it is Rusty then I suggest you Purchase a New Carburator. If you Require a Breakdown or other Assistance, just let me know. Hope this Helps. I am here if you Require more Assistance. Let me know what Happens, Please. I enjoy knowing the Outcome. Thanks.

 Good Luck

 Respectfully

 John
