SofaKing Well-known member Aug 9, 2016 #1 I am wondering if the power valves are functionally interchangeable? One type has a visible spring that sticks up into the float bowl, the other has a small brass stud sticking out the top. Carb is marked 91-99, both valves came in the rebuild kit.

In the instructions it was referred to only as item "28", a not very useful description. Do you have a preferred vendor?
