Default Carb Adjustment Proceedure for Kohler Carb

I been frustrated by the carb on my Quietline 1200. The carb was rebuilt two years ago by an so called professional, but it never has been right since.

Now, when I go to accelerate the engine seems to flood and die. With the air cleaner assembly off, when I accelerate, I seen fuel coming out of the air intake of the carb. IF, I run the accelerator up SLOWLY, the engine slowly begins to increase RPMs, If I run the lever up fast, it stalls.

So, what does the top needle screw adjust? What is the side, angled screw for?

Is there a simple procedure?

Thanks!!!

Top screw is fast idle
Angled screw is low idle

In is lean, out is rich
When you change the one it will effect the other
Sounds lean to me.

That information is basically a starting point to get it running, further fine tuning will most likely be needed.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
