Not sure if Lloyd is still selling the primer washers. All good advice on the previous posts. A compression test will give you some valuable information, as these rotary valve motors are very sensitive to low compression. They just won’t idle well.
A complete carburetor cleaning and rebuild as described on the pochefamily website would be a wonderful thing. In the meantime, take the check valve out, carefully remove the screen, and soak both in carb cleaner or acetone. The tiny disc inside must be free, or the motor will not idle. The pochefamily website describes a test to see if the check valve is working properly.
