I was given a Murry 4.5 bs mower and as soon as I put gas in, it started running out of the carb and primer bulb. I cleaned it really good with carb cleaner and replaced the float, pin and seat as well as the air filter gasket. It still will not put gas in the carb.
When I was putting the bowl back on the carb I noticed that there is an opening in the threads of the carb, does the bolt holes need to line up with this opening? I have tried several time to no avail, they are always off a 1/4 of a turn.
Should I have replaced the rubber O ring between the motor and the carb when I took the carb off to put on the new parts?
I originally thought this was fun to mess with but know I want to get it running like a scalded dog.
