Series 1's are adjustable from factory
and ebay has $20-25 NEW ones that seem to have a good reputation.
While I can make non adjustable ones run as they should, I still don't like them.
They are lean to meet emissions.

Now you got me wondering did the owner swap the series 1 carb over to the series 2, before that one blew? I do have a series 2 in a 782--non adjustable as well. That one runs OK, just needle isn't sealing--got to fix that.
I shouldn't say this, I have no idea whats on my 2072, but its been working proper since the day it got here!:bigeyes:

well j mech i took it back down to nothing. knocked the welch plug out and there was some trash in behind and so i got that cleaned out. as far as the fuel filter goes i have a pretty big one on it and it flows pretty well without it running turn it over and it sprays like no tomorrow...i think the pump is good cuz when i took the line off it had pressure on it and squirted out of the line fromthe pump to the carb. im gonna give it another shot...if i cant i get it to run right this go around im gonna drain the fuel tank again and go from there

If you found trash in the carb, I'd say that's your issue. Question is, did you get it all out....

I got it all out of the carb and also found out the emergency fuel shut off was bad (little plunger with the o ring) took it out and it has no issues now

You mean a fuel shut off solenoid? Mag engines don't have one .....:bigthink::bigthink::bigthink:
