Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): B&S carb adjustment screw(s), fuel tank cap, adjustment screw


Question
I am trying to adjust B&S 5hp leaf blower (it stalls after about 5 minutes) but can only find ONE adjustment screw; is this possible?
Many thanks.

Answer
Hi Tom,

It is possible.  Usually the high speed jet is located under the float bowl, the low speed jet on the side of the carb and the idle speed screw also on the side of the carb.

Let me know how you make out.

Check the fuel tank cap for proper venting and check for spark when it quits.
