The lawnmower started immediately and runs like new. A Few Tips

I have a lawnmower with a GVC160-LAO and this fits perfectly. Contrary to the picture I received, there was a pin sticking out of the choke lever, making it work perfectly with the auto-off throttle on my lawnmower. It took me about 20 minutes to get dressed. The mower started on the first pull and runs like new. A few Tipps. Do not "remove" the screws that attach it to the engine. Loosen them completely so they don't catch on the threads in the holes in the motor, but do not remove them. CAREFULLY remove the carburetor from the engine, being careful not to tear the gasket. Pads can be reused 99% of the time. Holding the bolts tight inside the carburetor keeps all the gaskets, gaskets, etc. in the correct position and in the correct order. Take a picture of the holes in the throttle where the linkage and spring attach so you know you connected them correctly. The lever is just a Z shape at the end of a wire that you have to pull out. CAREFULLY remove the gaskets and spacers from the screws, avoiding tearing, and place them on a clean surface when removing them to make it easier to reinstall them in the correct order and orientation. After removing the old carburetor, simply put everything back in place the way you removed it. If you have a choke like mine that disengages after 5-6 seconds, make sure the lever sticking out of the engine to engage the choke is sticking straight out or even slightly to the right when you engage the carb . If you accidentally move it to the left, it won't engage the choke. Don't forget to put the crankcase ventilation hose back into the hole in the engine like I did. You will be sucking in a lot of dirty air from behind the air filter.
