[Rhodes22-list] Motor report.

[Lowe, Rob]

Ben,
Ah, a man that admits he doesn't know a carburetor from a what knot.  I'm pretty sure it was a rebuild.  A "new" one is around $200 while a rebuild kit is probably $50.  The carb takes the fuel and air, mixes them together in the right combination, and feeds it to the motor cylinders.  As long as the motor works, don't worry about it! - rob

Would you believe that I have no idea what a carburetor looks like or what it does?  Sure, I could google it, but I don't accidentally want to turn into a real man or anything.

Bob,
They replaced it or rebuilt it? I can't think of anything you could do to it that would require replacing a carburetor short of physically harming  it.
