Well worth the money
Worked great. Came with all the tank accessories. Installed new carb. Three pulls and started right away. No adjustment need for the high or low idle. Only adjustment needed was for the idle rpm’s. Runs great again

DO.NOT.WAIT.
So, I thought about giving this a 1 star rating so people like me that go directly to the reviews that are negative would read this. Didn't want to do that and effect the seller in a bad way. I had reservations about buying this as there were some people that either were reviewing the wrong item, didn't know what they were doing or something else. Anyhow, I got this for a Mantis that my wife purchased back in 2007 because she 'needed' one. I haven't done much to it maintenance wise other that air filter, spark plug and gear grease over the years. I don't always use it every year and when it does get used it is small jobs and mostly edging the driveway or sidewalk. Needless to say, for the price compared to the Mantis option I thought I could take a $12 loss if it didn't work out. Prior to buying this I pretty much disassembled the original carburetor and cleaned everything with spray cleaner and probed around in the different holes as best I could. That really didn't make much difference. I have always been able to get this running but it was a problem over the last 10 years or so and I had to do things like keep the choke partially closed or get it to full throttle and keep it there until I was finished. Now, the only issue I ran into is that the tolerances on everything are very tight. I initially had a thin silver flat washer from one of the screws that secure the carb to the engine and didn't see where it came from so, I just added it to the screw on the rear side of the engine along with the already existing flat washer and lock washer. Well, when trying to screw that back in it simply would not catch. I attributed that to the new gaskets as well as the fact that I did not have an existing gasket between the air cleaner/choke assembly and the carb body. By laying the machine on it's side and applying enough pressure while screwing the screw I got it to catch. Not so nice as now the choke would not operate as there was too much pressure to allow it to move. So I took the carb back off and looked a little deeper at things. Come to discover that the thin silver washer that I did not know where it went was actually supposed to go in the center of the choke flap. That creates enough space between the air cleaner/choke assembly so that the choke flap does not get compressed to the point it doesn't move. I still had to apply a little pressure to get those 2 screws that attach the carb to the engine to catch the threads in the engine, but I attributed that to the new and gaskets, including the one that I did not have previously. I also replaced the spark plug with the one provided and set the gap at .025 as that is the closest I could get to the recommended .024-.028. I also installed one of the provided air cleaners. They are a little different than the OEM filters, but I think they are an improvement. So, the moment of truth. I put some new gas in, primed the fuel system with the pump, went with full choke and it started on the FIRST pull. Wow, just wow. The only adjustments I made were to increase the idle somewhat and I had to lean the high mixture about half a turn. I let it run for a while but did not put it to work. Next day I went out and it started on the second pull and I used hard it for probably 30 minutes. If I knew this was going to solve my problems so easily on inexpensively, I would have done this years ago. Do not hesitate to buy this if you are having any sort of problems with you Mantis running like it did when it was new. Do it now.

Exactly what I needed – easy installation. Mantis 7920 tiller started right up after install.

Good fit
It was just like the original carburetor and hoses but it didn't want to run on that airfilter put the original one in and it ran fine. But for the price you can't go wrong

This was PERFECT. Installed on my Mantis tiller, chocked it one pull, turned choke off, one pull, started and ran perfect. No adjustment required at all. 5*s all the way

Don't hesitate! Worked Like a Charm!
I've had an Echo TC210 for between 3-4 years. I used it for the first few months of ownership to work on a couple of small projects in my yard and then parked it. It sat for probably 8 months before I used it on another small project and then I set it outside on my porch and it sat there until I moved a few months back. Fast forward to now and I have a few more projects I will be using it on. However, I knew the carb was totally useless. First it needed a primer bulb and I thought I'd at least stick one on there and see if it made a difference. Nope! It wouldn't even move fuel it was so bad. I figured for $11 bucks, whats the worst that could happen since I spend that on coffee every day. I literally spent less than 5 minutes pulling the old carb off and sticking this new one on. I pressed the prime bulb about 8 times or so to get fuel in it, choked it, then pulled the rope 4 times before it fired. Switched over to run on the carb and it fired up perfect on the 5th pull! Another thing to keep in mind, this thing still had old fuel in it that's been aging to perfection for the last probably couple of years or whenever it was that it last ran. I never did change it out. It even smells like old bad gas while running, but still runs like a champ!! Moral of the story, if you are here to read reviews and make a decision on whether or not to try this cheapo carb to fix your small 2 stroke tiller, buy this for $11 bucks and throw it on. If a carb is your issue, it won't be anymore! If nothing else, it's worth it for the fuel filter, lines and primer bulbs as that is over $20 for Echo stuff.

Awesome fix for a troublesome Mantis
If you are having trouble with your mantis save some time and frustration and just get this kit. It’s an easy fix. I installed it quickly, primed it, pulled out the choke & it was running after the first pull. I did need to adjust the high speed jet but that was simple.
