Hi Guys! Thanks for all your answers it is a nice feeling to know that there are people ready to help.
I have taken the carburetor out once again and paid special attention to all the nozzles, jets and openings, etc...
It was full of petrol so when I tip it over approximately 50cc of petrol poured out of the vent opening.
Took it apart and I must say that I have cleaned everything that I could find even found a piece of very thin wire and pushed it through all the nozzles and jets. I was sure that now it will work but I got pretty much disappointed yesterday, when after only 2 days, it did not want to start!
So now I have changed tactics and took some petrol from tank and put it directly in to a carb through vacuum pipe. After that engine started immediately and it worked perfectly. Today my wife went to work with it and she said that it started with no problem in the morning and also in the afternoon when she went home.
I am thinking… If there is petrol in float chamber and all the jets have been cleaned what else could be wrong so the petrol from a float chamber doesn’t come out and mixes with air? And when it finally does start this same reason is gone and everything is functioning as it should.
This is a picture of a carburetor:
One more question... What is a function of a "black" part with electrical contact? Is this a auto choke?
