I’m working on a Kohler ch23s. We had a old miller welder that was a yard welder and not used often. One day it started and revved up like the engine wouldn’t handle it and ready to blow. It was turned off and set off to the side. It sat out in the elements for a yeaR or two before I bought it home to see what was up. i found a bent pushrod and blown head gasket. I replaced both, but now I’m back to the high rev. the bent push rod and blown head gasket may very we’ll be from sitting outside. Cylinder might have gotten water in it and when I tried to start it, it had no place to go, so it bent and blew out what it could. I’m back to square one now and I’m looking at this solenoid the idles it down ( I think). I totally removed it from the unit and with a battery hooked to it, it works. But not very strong, It retracts when energized and I can pull the spool back out of it for the first 3/4 of travel. After that it fully locks and I can’t pull it out. i know it’s a lot and horrible punctuation, but my spelling is right thank you in advance

I'm having a hard time removing this carb from my snowblower, I assume it's stuck on the back Gaskin, anything I can do? Those two bolts should stay there correct and I should be able to slide the carb off. ​​​​​
