This guide takes a little more work than some of the other lawn mower replacements. You first remove the air filter, and then go behind it to remove and clean the carburetor tank. You will use a socket wrench with a 5/16" and ½" hex bit and a prying tool. Before you get started, you may want to purchase an O-ring if your lawn mower is old, as the O-ring in the carburetor tank may be worn. Cleaning the carburetor may get messy, so do not attempt it inside.

Nice guide. My mower was only running on choke, any other throttle setting and it would die. A quick online search indicated dirty carburetor and subsequently I found your guide. Gave everything a good clean and voila! Good as new.
Slide clamp on fuel line back and pull fuel line off carb. plug line with old pen/pencil
Remove two nuts holding carb onto engine. Remove nut holding engine choke arm on top of carb. Then remove two springs and one carb adjust metal arm. Note places of attachment
spray cleaner in all brass jets, use fine wire to clean out all orifices, clean bowl attachment nut. Spray cleaner in to choke area and tip upside down and spray under the bowl needle.
drain old gas out of tank and alternatively add a in line fuel filter as well a new air filter.
clean or repl spark plug
Excellent suggestions, as well.
yes, this is a better guide for cleaning. the other should be called "how to inspect your carb O-ring"
