I have a horiontal 5hp Briggs & Strraton motor on my go kart. it didn't run so i concluded that the gas line was clogged. ok so now i have it apart but can't figure out how the Throttle assembly goes back together. A crucial part in making it run. so if anyone has a Picture of theres or knows where i can get a picture or diagram please let me know. Also what can i use to clean the fuel filter/line. As of now I am soaking it in gas to try and free up the gunk. Any tips, pictures, or help would be greatly appreciated!

please post a model type and serial so we know exactly what engine you are asking about. As far as cleaning the carb Use carb cleaner ( NOT the gunk brand) The super tec at walmart does good.

http://www.briggsandstratton.com/pdf/illustrated_parts_list/100/MS8994.pdf Is the IPL which i think pretains to your engine. You can buy a repair manual online or get one from your local dealer.
