I just bought a 3020 for what I think was a very fair price, the problem is that it sat outside for six years and rain ran into the engine thru a rusted out muffler and the engine as might well be expected is setup,in working on it to get it ready to truck home I pulled the plugs to put some Kroil in the cyclinders to start trying to free up the engine,2,3,4, spark plugs had rust on the tips ,when I pulled #1 lookout you'd of thought someone was on the otherside with a garden hose so much water came out ,look out I'm rambeling,I pulled the carb off to bring home as a "teaser" and tore it apart and as I thought it was full of dead gas and scale it cleaned up nice and the trottle shaft has a good fit. Now finally the reason for this post, I called JD to oder a float and a carb gasket kit, the float was $26.00 and the gasket kit was $20.00. OK now I'm sitting down and thinking I need to get home to ask some people with more knowledge than me, is there an alternative to find parts for "I suspect" an engine rebuild. I'm not depressed yet as I'm just starting and am in it for the long haul so any help on where to look for parts would be of much help.
