Hey – my first success with this project! The throttles were completely stuck and wouldn’t budge.
After some careful persuasion, some WD40 and a pair of pliers, I finally got them to move. After some more WD40 and manually opening and closing them about 30 or 40 times, they now move freely and spring back into the closed position as they should.
As you can see from the picture, the two end throttles aren’t in alignment with the other two. That’s because there’s a spring missing from each one and they flop around. I have both of them (they fell out)…should be interesting trying to get them back into place.

You’re this far,,so might as well gut them! Do a good job now & save yourself the headache of having to redo them later.. Mike.
I totally agree….just hoping the shop manual gives a good rundown on the carbs because these are way more complex that anything I’ve worked on before. The carbs in omy CL200 are less complex than lawnmower carbs.
