Hi everyone.  I just received a Hustler 900 from a guy for fixing his truck and I completely new to 6x6s.  He claimed it was running fine when he lost interest (after spending a fair amount of cash to rebuild the transmission) but then he parked it for 2 years outside without any covering.  I've got the chains moving ok now, the starter working and I think I've got my spark issue figured out when I get my new parts installed.  My current challenge is the carb.  The ATV has a Kohler K440-2AM 2-stroke motor and the existing carb is a Walbro with floats.  The carb is in pretty rough shape but I might could bring it back to life but I was wondering if anyone could clue me in on a potential replacement.  I can't find any numbers on the carb but one place I called said the carb hasn't been in production for 30 years.  Any help/guidance would be greatly appreciated.
