My mantis started acting up last year. Would not idle and ran really rough so I was thinking of replacing the carb. I bought a bottle of "Mechanic in a Bottle" at Home Depot and ran some through the Mantis for around 15 min. Been running great now. The bottle has instructions for trying it with something that does not run at all. Fixed my generator to; it would not run without the choke.
