I have my dads cub cadet 24in snowblower with a tecumseh engine. It always ran perfect and idled good. It has the 120 volt starter. It sat for a while before he passed away and as usual the gas dried up and corroded a little in the carb. I cleaned tank and carb out and it will start right up but surges at full throttle and gets a little better at lower speed but will only sometimes idle. Putting the auger in gear will smooth it some but not totally. It has no adjustment screws and I took the idle jet out and cleaned it with a torch tip cleaner. I poked out all passages with the wire too and gumouted and blew the heck out of it at least 5 times. It has the stupidest throttle lever spring hook up I've seen and I have no idea why its set up like it is. I can hold my finger against the governor arm and smooth out the hunting. I moved the spring to different holes with no improvement. No one else has touched it before me. I am about to use the sledge to adjust the carb! I scouted the net and tried most of the obvious fixes including sea foam. Is there anything im missing? Or should I just order a new carb? thy're pretty cheap now.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
