QuestionJohn,
I pulled the engine top cover and the only numbers I can find are stamped on the coil.

Are these the numbers you need to look up the rebuild kit? I also found a crack in the float so that will have to be replaced. Any ideas where I can find a float and rebuild kit for this carb?
Thanks,
Bob

-----Question-----
The carburetor is metal, I'm soaking it overnight in carb cleaner. When you say install new kit, what does the kit include? Is that a float, needle, and seat? What engine specs do I need to be able to buy the right kit?
I will blow everything out with compressed air before re-assembly, anything else I should be aware of or check on?
The only specs I could find on the mower are:
Dynamark 3.0 HP
Model 2003-0000
Code 5107
SN 577086
Thanks for the help!

-----Question-----
I have a Dynamark push mower with a 3 HP 4 cycle engine, I can't find a brand anywhere on the engine. It has run great in the past, but when I fired it up this spring I could not keep it running. I would pump the primer 3-4 times and it would fire right up and then die. I could sometimes get it to keep running if I started pumping the primer as it was running. I pulled the carburetor off and cleaned it out with carb cleaner and blew it out with compressed air, the float, needle, and seat appear to be in good condition, the float is not heavy, the needle is seated when the float is about level. I put everything back together and have the same results, I will pump the primer 3-4 times and it will fire right up and then die. Now even pumping the primer will not keep it running. Pump it a few times and it will fire right back up and die again. It has clean fuel, the carburetor doesn't have any adjustment on it, I am out of ideas. Thanks in advance for the help!

Hello Bob:
If this is the Plastic Carburetor, then Replace it. If it is the Metal Carburetor, then Soak the Carburetor Overnight in Gunk Carburetor Cleaner and then Blow Out the Passages with Compressed Air. Install New Kit. There May be Model Numbers Stamped Into the Blower Housing(metal engine cover). If you can Send me the Model Numbers Off of the Engine, Please. With these Numbers I can Locate a Breakdown/IPL of the Engine and Carburetor and Better Assist you. Hope this Helps. I am here if you Require more Assistance. Let me know what Happens, Please. Thanks.
Good Luck

Hello Bob:
The Kit has a Needle and Seat(2 Needles, 1 Rubber Seat). Look at the Needle in your Carburetor. Use the Like Needle from the Kit when Replacing the Old One. It will Also Include the Gaskets and Diaphragm and Spring. Some of these Kits Are a Multi-Kit and are for More than One carburetor. Match and Use the Like Parts. The Model Numbers I Require are on the Engine. Usually the are Stamped on the Blower Housing(metal engine cover) above the Spark Plug or the Muffler. If an OHV Engine it May be on the Valve Cover. Hope this Helps. I am here if you Require more Assistance. Let me know what Happens, Please. Thanks.
Good Luck
