Remove the air cleaner. Remove the bolts that are securing the fuel tank, then remove the fuel tank and the carburetor, remove the linkage from the carburetor. Remove the carburetor from the tank. Then remove the diaphragm and gasket. Clean the surface of the tank and the bottom of the carburetor. Place the diaphragm on the fuel tank and the gasket on top of it. Install the carburetor on the fuel tank then hook the linkage to the carburetor. And install the fuel tank to the engine. And replace the filter in the air cleaner. Then install the air cleaner.

Removed old foam filter, removed two bolts and pulled carburetor and gas tank off as a complete unit. Adjusted linkage on carburetor to governor. Unscrewed carburetor from gas tank, replaced gaskets, spring, diaphragms with the new parts included and put the carburetor on the tank and the completed until back on the engine. A few pumps of the primer build to see if fuel was reaching the carburetor, replaced the foam filter and one pull of the recoil starter and it ran perfectly right out of the box. Be sure the diaphragm does not tear by over tightening the screws that mount the carburetor to the tank. I found the diaphragm was torn on the old carburetor when I removed it.
