I have a Toro 22" Recycler 6.5HP Self-Propelled Lawnmower Model # 20016 serial #240084831. Both cables are too loose to function. The casing of both cables ends at the side handle cable support brackets, and the the portion that extends upward is entirely exposed. Is there any way to tighten these cables, or do they have to be replaced? If replacement is necessary, would greatly appreciate it if you could please give me some instructions and an idea of the cost of the cables? Thanks very much.

I took in a Craftsman YardVac 247.770100 with a Tecumseh LEV120 engine (craftsman#143.994510). Problem: Prime it runs for 2 seconds, dies. Sounds simple. Take apart the carb, soak all parts, includung the bowl nut,making sure all the holes in the bowl nut are clean, install new kit #631021B. Now it does nothing. Checked spark-good spark. Checked gas tank-gas flows out of tank nipple. Gas flows thru hose. Also, checked flywheel key-as it should be. :wall: even sprayed a little gas down the plug hole. Nothing! What 1 little stupid thing am I overlooking here? :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall:
