GOT IT STARTED BUT DOES NOT RUN GOOD.IT WILL ONLY RUN ON CHOKE. IT QUITS WHEN YOU GIVE IT MORE THROTTLE. I TOOK THE CARB. OFF AND CLEANED IT BUT DID NOT TAKE THE TWO NOZZLES OUT AND CLEAN THEM. IT WAS NOT VERY DIRTY. BUT AFTER I DONE THAT IS WHEN IT DID START. SHOULD I REBUILD THE CARBERATOR? ANY IDEAS???
 

Take it apart and remove the bottom power (Main Fuel) adjustment, float and venturii..

The passage that feeds fuel to that bottom fuel adjustment gets sediment in it and can be restricted or plugged ..
There is not much in there to "re-build".. if the needle and seat are OK and you don't tear-up the gasket..

Oh-crap..!!
Was the wrong post...!!
Same on the "LP 60"..no "Seat, though..!
Just don't force the "fuel" screw, or you can break the slot for a screw driver out...
Pretty simple carb, they seem to be..just need careful cleaning..
The gas generator (vaporizer) gets pretty gummed-up...clean the line from the filter to the vaporizer..if you find gum in there, you may need to at least clean, maybe re-build the vaporizer..
Very carefully, you should be able to open the vaporizer...and if you don't ruin the diaphram, after cleaning the gum out, put it back together..
The carb is so simple, I don't see how the blamed thing works so well...!!
