B&S V-Twin carburetor repair

Aug 26, 2004 0 Replies

I have carburetor "issues" on my B&S V-Twin 12 HP generator engine. The engine has less than 20 hours on it... so I'm convinced it doesn't need a rebuild kit.



I'm sure that the gas in the tank had gotten very old, so I've tried cleaning the carburetor, but it still doesn't work.



There is a needle valve on the outside that is covered with a plastic cap that I can't remove. I think this is the culprit.



Does anyone know how to remove the plastic cover for this needle valve. The cover has a notch on it that limits it's movement.



Anyone who can help me with this is worth a gazillion bucks.



Thanks.... Greg
