Thanks, good info.
On further evaluation, and based on how well the generator is running, I think I'm going to be satisfied just cleaning the main nozzle (emulsion tube) part # 12 and installing the high altitude main jet. At this time I don't think further break down is needed, but I will store your info for when it is needed.
I have a set of hollow ground screwdriver bits so jet removal should not be an issue depending how far down in the tube the jet is. Good to know the large O ring is not an issue. I will treat it with caution. The generator is new enough that I don't think the 2 flange gaskets on the carb body will be an issue either.
I'm still considering getting one of the $35 generic carburetors and putting the high altitude jet in it. It looks easier and quicker to swap carbs when needed than to have to disassemble and change jets.
