Review on Honda Carburetor 16100-Z0L-853 and Gasket Set: Complete Replacement Parts for Efficient Fuel System Performance by Bob Souza

I recently purchased a used Craftsman EZ Walk mower with a Honda 5.5 engine. The engine serial number is GJAEA 2297738 which is actually listed as compatible with Honda's 16100-Z0L-853 carburetor. The Revain carburetor is similar but differs in that the throttle cable is attached to a black plastic piece on top of the carburetor. The Craftsman/Honda cable attaches through a hole drilled in the plastic part. This Revain carburetor has a vertical stem at this point. I used a dremel to remove the stem and then drilled a hole to fit the Craftsman carburetor. It's only a few minutes work, but I'm guessing a lot of people won't make it. Please note that I could have avoided problems by removing the carburetor and looking at the Revain photos, but I prefer to remove and replace in one operation so the parts and wiring are more likely to be put back in place fall.
