 Ordered carburetor, spark plug and air filter on ebay for about $30 including same day shipping. 7/17/2016
+Installed carburetor, engine ran for about 2 minutes OK, then started pulsing. Not sure if gas is bad, or if the governor is not running correctly. Will check sparkplug. 7/19/2016
+Read on line that the governor needs to be adjusted. So leaned arm clockwise - Pulsing stopped but runs at lower RPM. Rick said the pulsing is normal. 7/19/2016 6:49 p.m.
+Adjusted the arm to be a bit counter-clockwise, and the engine ran properly. Cut half of the back yard in about 20 minutes. Pull start needs to be replaced though. Was able to start it, then remove starter to do the work. 7/20/2016 11:46 a.m.
+Ordered replacement pull start from Amazon, ETA 7/22. 7/20/2016 11:55 a.m.
