Very bad engine misfire, could not be corrected with needle valve adjustment or carb cleaning

1. Removed carburetor and separated top from bottom
2. Saw very slight wrinkle close to spring on fuel pump
3. Replaced membrane, pump spring and breather grommet. Likely only the membrane was worn.
4. Reinstalled carburetor and engine started right up and ran like new!

The carburetor diaphragm was old and no longer worked.

Remove the four screws that hold the diaphragm cover plate to the carburetor.
Remove the cover plate. Notice the orientation of the diaphragm and remove it. At this point spray some carb cleaner through the orifices to remove any debris.
Place the new diaphragm on the carburetor (there is only one way the diaphragm will fit) and attach the cover plate to the carburetor with the four screws.
