Model 17 HP carbs

[warren]

Years later I still cannot get these things to work.  I have become quite good at pressure testing etc. but they still do not work. I have substituted later carbs on my 17's but am uncomfortable about building "frankensaws".  Can't find any service procedures or experts (perhaps it's a little late for that).  Even current experts in the field are not experienced with this carb.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
