Subject: Fuel from Carburetor may Flood Crankcase.
Fuel may enter the carburetor throat through a fuel return line when the engine is off
causing fuel to enter the crankcase and the engine to run poorly. This condition is most
often the result of debris from the fuel that lodges between the needle and seat, which
can prevent the needle and seat from sealing properly.
If your unit experiences this situation, the fuel return line may be relocated as described
in the attached instructions. Carburetor cleaning instructions are also included. Further
details regarding this bulletin are available through your local Toro distributor.
