There are resource facts that are irreversible. There is no realistic way to remove CO2 from coal combustion (it can be done at double the cost and 1/3 increase in the consumption of coal. There is a finite amount of coal. all coal remaining will be of lesser and lesser quality and higher and higher cost of extraction. Governmental regulation is the beat we can expect, but it is not affecting the use of coal or the sequestration of co2 in other countries. We have no "national" ability/willingness to control the export of coal to the uncontrolled world. I do research what I say. I teach courses in resource management. I understand real world demand for energy. I understand the implications of cold turkey stopping of the extraction of coal. I have family with generations of work in coal mining. I believe we need to phase out the world use of coal. It is dirty in many ways not visible to 99% of the users of the energy. From distribution of mercury into the fish of our lakes, to the radiation from the nuclear elements in the flue gasses, to the CO2, it is destructive. Nothing will cure it's problems. Humanity has a desperate intention to continue to do things shown to be bad for them, especially when the effects seem to be in the future, or not causing them to wear masks (see Beijing China pollution) I risk ridicule (here on the tractor channel (as my wife calls it))to tell the truth in unfettered words.

After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
