Log splitter would not run
This was the first carburetor diaphragm I found on internet. A friend looked and found one cheaper, with more parts and free shipping. This part repaired the carb and I can get the wood split

I soaked the carb in cleaner, ringed it off and blew out the ports and installed the new parts. The diaphragm was the main culprit but a new spark plug helped too.

Found my grandfather's old plow under a pile of scrap metal while clearing out my dad's barn. The 5 hp implement was on its side in the dirt and was last used 40 years or more.

Carb diaphragm replaced easily (5 screws on side of carb)..
Jet needle then needed adjustment (trial-and-error to get most power).
Blade cable was a direct replacement of OEM part -- very easy.
Now my mower is as good as new.
