<VV> Re: 110 Lawn Mower! - not really fixed

[Dennis & Debbie PLEAU]

Unless you have other problems you think are carb related, I would just pull 
the top off the offending carb and get the piece of junk out and then put 
the top back on.  I don't know anyone who has really had good luck with the 
Pinto carb conversion.
