Anybody know how to remove the carb from a Briggs & Stratton Classic 3.5
HP engine? Or could you point me in the right direction?

You take off the fuel tank and remove the carb from the top of the tank.
I have one here I can look (to remind myself) at if you need to know more
specifics. Usually the only fault is the filters clog up.

What that stop the engine from priming ?


my one has a pump which lifts fuel into a reservoir, then the main jet tube
dips into the reservoir. Both tubes have filters, both get rubbish in.

If the machine has been standing then the reservoir may dry out, if the tank
is low, but filling the tank will slop the fuel into the reservoir and away
it will go, the pump then takes over as the fuel level in the tank goes
down.
