Kendell: When you do the belly blade you'd be doing our world a big favor if you started a new thread in the Sandbox with progression pics. It's been done:

I could probably dig into the archives and find out who to credit this to - I've saved it for 4 years.
I dug. Kraig's got pics of Bob Necker's Original with a grader blade. The discussion was late October, 2005.

Why the Sand Box?
It's pre 1981 Cub related ain't it!

but then it would be contained to it's own little world, kind of like Don's 1512D. Picture this: Sicily, 1922. OOPS, sorry, too much Sophia on Golden Girls.

Brad R. I dont consider a needle valve+spring retainer and a float an 'assembly'. If you get a carb kit you will get a valve and usually a retainer spring, maybe an appropriate seat and washers, o-rings as appropriate. Floats are separate items. The tab slides onto the spring and assures the valve always pulls down. Sometimes can be awkard to fit them together, but if you pulled the pivot pin from the float its usually a lot easier to reassemble. Any engine I've worked on in recent years has that tiny pull spring...so dont lose it !!! <font size="-2">(50 cents to buy one...$5 to ship it!</font>
