Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Carb on FA210D, internal passages, mid eighties

Question
I had the spring in the proper place.  I removed the thin metal cover as mentioned below but it still will not hit a lick.  Before I took the carb off and cleaned it, I could spray a little bit of starting fluid in the carb and it would crank and run for a second or two.

I appreciate your quick response to my orginal question

Question -
I have a Kawasaki FA210D engine(probably mid eighties) which runs a generator.  I took carb off to clean(appeared to be starving for fuel).  When I took off the diaphram gasket( I assume that was what it was), the spring popped out.  I am not sure whether the spring and one thin metal cover for the spring was all that was in there.  At any rate I cleaned the Carb and put it back together but it will not hit a lick.  I cannot find a diagram of the carb to show me the parts.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks:  fpd   
Answer -
These should be the only three parts that remove when the screws holding the metal cover on are taken out.  It's likely you have installed the spring on the wrong side of the diaphram and are getting no fuel.  The order of assembly should be spring, diaphram, cover and retaining screws.  Hope this helps.

Answer
If the carb is assembled correctly and the engine will only start with starting fluid in the carb (which I recommend you use extremely sparingly), there may still be a blochage inside the carb.  Make sure you use a piece of tag wire to push through all of the internal passages and follow up with carb cleaner when cleaning the carb.  If you are sure the carb is clean and you are still not getting fuel the problem could be related to a poor impulse from the crankcase (hose split or passage blocked) to run the fuel pump within the carb.  It could also be related to the fuel pickup in the tank or the tank vent itself being plugged.  Hope this helps.
