My engine would idle normal and when throttle was applied would start to back fire and then the engine would stop.

Time

Pliers, Socket set
Parts Used
1. Loosen the 4 engine cowling bolts that hold the plastic cowling (engine cover).
2. Use pliers to remove the fuel clamp on the fuel line and disconnect the fuel line and breather tube from the carburetor.
3. Use a ratchet and socket to remove the 2 bolts holding the carburetor onto the engine block. Then use care when removing the throttle and spring lines from the carburetor. (Take a picture of where the connections go on the carburetor to make it easy for putting them in the correct holes on the new carburetor.)
4. Disassemble the breather tubes from the old carburetor and reassemble them on the new carburetor.
5. Reassemble what was taken apart and you’re all set.
