[QUOTE="PikeSlayer, post: 254312, member: 7720"] Thanks BB! You're dead on, its a 75. I took a look at the carb on the motor and also the parts breakdown on the parts site. It looks like the carb and fuel pump are more or less part of the same unit. I'm guessing my best bet is to just start with that. I can get a carb kit and fuel pump diaphragm kit for a total of about $20. I don't know a lot about these motors, but I'm wondering if the diaphragm in the pump can get hard or dry rot when its old so that it won't move fuel as effectively. Could that cause the motor to not carry a load? It revs up good in neutral, it just won't hold wide open when in gear. I'm trying to figure out if I'm on the right path or not. [/QUOTE]
