1. Removed carburetor and separated top from bottom
2. Saw very slight wrinkle close to spring on fuel pump

I wanted a project. The previous owner said i could have it and it may need a starter? It's a pull start.

Step 1 Power wash and engine degreaser.

Step 2 Inspect for oil - it was almost dry. Checked for spark - good. Air filter has never been changed. Primer bulb shot. Got it to start eventually - stable enough.

Step 3 Tore down the engine cover and carburetor enough to figure only that the only service this thing has seen is gasoline. Ordered the above parts.

Step 4 Cleaned out the carburetor and the top end of the engine. Sharpened the blade and made sure the whole mower was structurally sound.

Step 5 Replaced the parts that were ordered including the missing wheel assembly. Changed the oil, fresh gas, Three primes of the primer bulb. the machine came to life on the 1st pull.

I have mowed my grass three times so far, runs great. Selling it to a friend who needs a cheap mower

Ordered carburetor for a 25 yo Pollen Garden teller w/Brigs 5 hp engine. Two screw holes had to be opened up with tap. Ordered later two grommets that were needed to replace the old parts. Most difficult to replace this carb. on this engine. When done Just two pulls and purring like a kitten. Good carb.

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.

Too off air breather to get to carb. Unbolted gas tank and carb. Used tools to take apart carb. Scraped old gaskets off carb. Used carb cleaner spray and compressed air to spray our all holes and cleaned carb. Put new gaskets on then fired right up. Will deff use in the future for parts etc.

Removed carb and installed new diaphragms and gaskets
