Review on Complete Carburetor for Oregon Tools by Bart Elbrink

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Brought my old Powermate back when Irma came to Florida

This block replaces the original carburettor on a twelve year old generator that has not been used on old gasoline for eight years. Instead of wasting time rebuilding the carburetor, I installed an Oregon carburetor, which worked flawlessly. The "butterfly" lever mechanism is a bit tricky.

  • Everything was great!
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
