Default disassembly

Here are the pics of what I did today.

The carb is now residing the the chem-dip bucket and you can see the pto shaft of the engine has issues, hopefully I can have a new keyway cut 180 degrees from the old worn one.

I will try to get better pics as I go along, I always forget to take my digital camera with me and result to using the iPhone for pics. I had taken some pics of the carb issues I ran into (twisted off both the choke butterfly screws) but turned out too blurry to view. It turned out an easy fix to get the broken screws out, after the butterfly was removed, rotated the shaft 180 and the ends of the screws looked swelled causing them to snap off (they came out easy for a few turns then became stuck and snapped the heads off). I took my dremel tool with as narrow a cut off wheel as I had, cut slits in the back side of the broken screws, inserted a small flat bladed screw driver in them, and they backed out of the thread as easy as could be!
