I posted a picture of a wheelbarrow air compressor on tool talk a couple days ago. It would run pretty good when just started, but once warm you couldn't set the mixture. After looking at the carb, it was obvious that the housings had deformed over the years. The bowl was easy to fix, sandpaper and a flat surface took care of that.
