In any case with model and type and knowing your tank size needed, you can look up a part number so you can have something to start a search on - might even find a "new old stock" on ebay or somewhere
M- 130232 T- 0312-01 C-6911017
Briggs part # for the carb is 299437 or 297599 - Yes, we need the pull-out choke (no rotary choke)
They are still available NOS , however, the $ 110.00 and up they get for them is not in the budget for this build. (yes, I am a cheapskate!
) We have the parts to rebuild it as/if needed and an ultrasonic to clean it, so an old used one is fine. My hope is that you old pros have some laying around collecting dust in your "bone piles" of parts.
Thanks for any help,
