Im 100% with you on this, the niki is rubish but a lot of mower shops only sell the niki design. Great info, and yes I swapped my niki out for a walbro after market a few weeks back.. great vid man.. 👍

Hello! Bought a used Troy Bilt Pony 15.5 hp riding lawnmower. I've replaced the Nikki with a new OEM B&S Walbro carb, however the solenoid wires don't fit into the connection port. Thoughts? Can I put the solenoid from the Nikki onto the Walbro or what's the correct fix?

Thank you for this video good information . I also turned off my fuel and run it dry but later when I started up again the O-rings leaked and fuel dripped in the carburetor throat and it was flooded . I had to wait four hours for the fuel to swell the orings and make them seal again . so you really can’t run it dry .

After two NIKKI carbs on my Husqvarna GT51XLSI, I am absolutely done with NIKKI carbs! As you indicated, these carbs have a ridiculously complex and unreliable design. When it comes to mechanical devices, simpler generally means more reliable. I run the mower on ethanol free fuel, drain the fuel system, run the carb dry, and then run TruFuel through the carb to store the engine each winter. All of that effort has done nothing to ensure reliability. Surging and lack of slow speed idle are a way of life with these carbs. I have 18 and 13 year old Honda and Kohler engines with much simpler carburetor designs which run flawlessly ... even when using fuel containing ethanol. I believe that the recommended carb replacement shown in this video is for single cylinder Briggs engines. My mower is equipped with a Briggs 24HP 2-cylinder engine (Model 44N877, Type 000G1, Code 151028YG) fed by a single barrel NIKKI carb ... looks very much like that in the video. Can you suggest a Walbro or clone carburetor to replace the NIKKI carb on this engine?
