Well I lent a lawn mower to a neighbor, he brought it back broken (somehow the head was damaged oil leaked out and....) So after a while his dad was like well you can take the lawn mower in our backyard and have it. There was metal pieces of fence stuck in the blades and what not and some grass had grown on the wheels. I brought it back I changed the spark plug cleaned it up a tad bit then started it w/ some start fluid and tada started right up, and then it turned off faster than it started. took the bowl off the carb and there was just pure crud all in it. My efforts of dumping the hole thing in a jug of gas proved futile and then some rubber rings were just all torn up... I refused to pay money for a new carb for a pos lawn mower, so i made work with the plenty of parts I had laying around. I put on a pocket bike carb / x15 tank/ 2 intakes and got carried away from there... Enjoy~
First pic is of lawn mower that the neighbor messed up (plan to open it up to see what exactly needs fixing)

And I know the Tank on the top makes it look horribly rigged, but I had no choice since the original gas tank was much lower than the carb is now set at, and it's all that I had

I don't usually work on Lawn mowers, but my dad kept getting on my case that he was mad that the neighbor broke ours.

Thanks, and yeah your right these carbs aren't as bad as they're made out to be.On a side note, I was kinda pissed that I had to use the tank because without it I think it would've really looked bad ass. bluelaugh

There's always a way to make it work better/look. Move the tank up near the handle where your hands are and route a long gas line. At that height it should flow easy and look cleaner at least near the motor...OH! That a bitchin build brah a bitchin build!!!!!!
