There's not much more aggravating than a small engine that has a problem starting and running. But it seems as though you've put this one to rest Jan !! Awesome observations and solutions will the fuel delivery.

Thank You Wendell, simple stuff like this have the tendency to make you think out of the box, my OCD will never allow me to give up on it, the machine and generator part is in perfect condition, little bit of medicine and a plaster or two buy miles for sure, thanks for commenting my friend

Good Morning Sir, You are an OUTSTANDING Technical analyst and very well explained Sir 👌👍😇 You are doing very well with that Honda generator and not having that side panel will provide heat exchange and cooling things down 👍👌😇 Cheers 🍻🍻

Man yeah Mr Jan!! Glad you were able to get things lined out to get the Genny back running well!! Seems someone really had been messing with this one before you got it! Hopefully things continue bro work right and you have during the power outages!! Thank you for bringing us along, look fwd to more sir!! 😁😁😁👍👍👍

Fingers crossed my friend, it's temporarily fixes, seems if I will have to buy a new carb here and make an adaptor to fit the engine on the one side and the carb on the other, to import a carb like this one from USA is way too expensive, I can add a bit and buy a new gennie lol, I even tried Honda South Africa, they have no stock, discontinued.

@@Pennies_on_the_dollar Hi Nelson, we did not have amazon here, I guess that is where you guys can get replica carbs cheap, If you can get a price I will transfer the money plus shipping via PayPal, let me know if you are willing to check if it is available, it is a Honda EM 500 generator manufactured mid 80's I guess, engine number 1442546 and carb number 06ACWDT, the T is somewhat skew, not sure about it, thanks my friend👌👍🙏

my old craftsman mower with a b&s engine always leaks no matter what I did to it so I installed an inline shut off and it works fine now.
