Welcome to the forums! Since this is nearly a 9 year old thread, it may be best to start your own thread with all the information off the name tags on the machine. It will help our tech people give accurate information. The moderator will also cut this loose from this thread and make a separate one, so get ready.

Yes, I moved this to it's own thread. Model would help, as would knowing what kind of noise you're hearing. It could be a stuck brake, stripped input pulley, or bad transmission.

Hi, I'm completely new to the world of forums and this is my question: I have a Craftsman snowblower with a Tecumseh engine, no trouble starting and if I leave the choke on, the motor runs fine idle but as soon as i take the choke off, the motor starts going up and down in revs. what could cause this? Carb or something else? Thanks guysRead More

old briggs engine, carb inquiry

S

sgull on Oct 22, 2014

I acquired an old early 60's era W.S. Darley Company pump which is powered by a Briggs and Stratton model 23AFB engine. This piece of equipment has been sitting neglected for a long long time but apparently wasn't "all that long ago" when it did in fact operate okay. I'm gradually looking it over, checking things out, seeing what I might do to clean it up and hopefully get it running. Here's a picture of it sitting on the work table where I've been looking it over, with a few components removed, including the carb. The next picture is of the carb itself. I have the specific engine info, the type, the serial number, etc. But the carb itself doesn't seem to have any label or stamp indicating its make; but I assume its a Briggs and Stratton but don't know for sure. I'm in the process of gathering/researching anything about the pump and engine (and carb) I can find out. I'm thinking doing some disassembly of the carb next, just to check out the inside condition to the extent I might be able to. Before I do that though, I'd like t at least get a clue on what make of carb this is, what model, etc so I could look into the possibility of acquiring parts for it if necessary. Anybody here seen a carb like this before, maybe help me with identification? Thanks.
