Why do you have to put a hand over the carb to get it to start when it's cold Runs great when it warms up Carb. just rebulit new intake valve?
You have to put a hand over the carb to get it to start up when it is cold because the air to fuel ratio is better when there is warmer air. To avoid this, try to use more choke when it is colder out.
Why does the Briggs side shaft 5hp the only way it will run is to hold your hand over the carb?
Most probably the carburettor is out of tune, or clogged. Holding your hand over it is basically the same as giving it choke. If it runs that way it means that it isn't getting enough fuel otherwise.

A 2003 Honda 250 recon carb diagram?
I have a 2003 honda recon 4 wheeler. I thought I was having float issues with the Carb. I ordered a carb kit. Having the same issues. Problem, when cranking the motor over fuel squirts out of the small brass tubes that lay flat on the bottom of the carb, this is where the air filter would hook up. I have triple checked that the float is shutting off and I am certain that this is not my problem. In order to make it fire and run I have to screw the idle screw? almost all the way in, it will fire and run but it revs up and down, if I give it some throttle then it cuts out and dies, like it is then starving for fuel, I have tried to adjust the only other adjusting needle that is located on the bottom of the carb, it doesn't seem to make any difference where I adjust it? I am wondering if it might be something else besides carb problems? Like valves or whatever??Please help, thank you
