SERIES 3 & SERIES 4 CARBURETORS

Series 3 and 4 carburetors are generally used on 8 through

12.5 horsepower 4-cycle engines. The venturi size of these

carburetors are larger than Series 1 and Dual System

Carburetors. The quickest way to identify these carburetors

is by the presence of bosses on each side of the idle

mixture screw. To identify the Series 3 from a Series 4,

view the carburetor from the throttle end. The Series 3 has

(1) screw securing the throttle plate and the Series 4 uses

(2) screws.
