Thats interesting. I went up to the camp yesterday and couldn't start my fairly new craftsman mower with a Briggs. Quick look at the plug showed no gas, so I pulled the carb. When I saw it was plastic I though how much could a new carb cost, I could just order one and not mess with cleaning out the old one. A quick check online showed the plastic carb was $44 plus shipping so I opened up the old one and cleaned it out. It maybe a cheap plastic carb, but it was really easy to work on. As long as I don't have to do it every year I will be happy with it
