Main Nozzle (Emulsion Tube)
Place the main nozzle tension spring into the cavity of
the float bowl. Apply a small amount of oil to the o-ring
on the main nozzle and insert it into the float bowl cavity.
Float Installation
Install the float with a new inlet needle and float hinge
pin onto the float bowl assembly. Carefully push the hinge
pin into the retaining post using a small flat blade
screwdriver. Check the float movement for complete
travel.

THE UNITED STATES MAY HAVE HIGH ATTITUDE
JETS AVAILABLE, CONSULT SERVICE BULLETIN
110 FOR INFORMATION.
Final Checks
Test the inlet needle and seat sealing using Tecumseh
service kit 670340 or a similar pop-off tester. To test the
pop off pressure remove the float bowl, float and inlet
needle. Place a drop of fuel on the seat and reinstall the
needle and float. Hook up the pressure tester and apply
approximately 6-9 PSI of pressure or until the needle
pops off the seat. Slowly release the pressure to not
less than 1 ½ PSI. The needle should seat between
1 ½ - 6 PSI for a minimum of five minutes. If the minimum
1 ½ PSI cannot be maintained the needle and seat will
need to be serviced. (Illust. 3-22)

Fuel Bowl Retaining Bail
The retainer bail must hold adequate pressure on the
float bowl to prevent air or fuel leakage during operation.
When re-installed, the force should be adequate to
securely clamp the bowl to the body of the carburetor. If
damage occurred upon bowl removal replace the bail.
IMPULSE FUEL PUMPS
Impulse fuel pumps are externally mounted in the fuel
circuit between the fuel supply and the carburetor. A fuel
pump must be used if the fuel supply outlet is lower than
the bowl inlet. There MUST be a in-line fuel filter installed
prior to the pump to prevent system damage.
Impulse fuel pumps are operated by positive and
negative pressure pulsation in the crankcase, which are
created by the up, and down movement of the piston. A
hose called a pulse line, connects the fuel pump
diaphragm chamber to the crankcase and transmits the
pulses to the pump diaphragm. These impulses actuate
the diaphragm creating the pumping action to lift the
fuel from the fuel tank to the carburetor(s). (Illust. 3-24)
The pump body contains check valves, which open and
close preventing the fuel from going backwards from
the pump.
