Carburetor Fun
Before I do something like set it on fire...or dump a magazine into the block I'm reaching out to the braintrust.
I got a bad batch of gas. Maybe I didnt rotate my gas tanks well enough, (try to keep four or five full at the river to eliminate towing the boat to a gas station) but I had a bunch of ethanol balls in my tank(s).
Cleaned the carbs blew out the gas tanks, and replaced pumps.
this motor in particular is a 23 HP Kohler on a zero turn. It will only run now on full choke. I've replaced the gaskets in the front and back. It's getting air somewhere behind the choke. Is there something else I'm missing? Again, gaskets are new. Seals are tight. bolts are torqued down.
