Carburetors
Your cultivator’s carburetor ensures the ideal mix of fuel and air travels to the engine during the combustion process. If your carburetor is damaged, it will not allow your engine to operate at peak capacity. Often, the carburetor can become dirty and clogged by leaving fuel in the machine for a long period of time, such as over the winter months. Normally, if you clean your carburetor, you will be able to operate your cultivator with the choke off again. However, if the parts have become brittle because of fuel being left in the machine, you may need to repair the part by purchasing a new carb kit. If you can’t clean or fix the individual parts of the carburetor, you may need to replace it entirely.
