Just purchased a used DA 50. Tried to start it and it would fire after being choked, then flipped a couple of times would fire but would not run but for just a few seconds, then nothing. Choked again and then the same thing. Pulled the cowl and found the carburetor was flipped around but the spacer and gaskets were in the same original position. Question: I thought if the carburetor was flipped that the spacer block and tube connection had to be flipped as well. ?? Can anyone elighten me???? Should I pull the carb and rotate the spacers and gaskets to align with the original orientation of the carb?

Thanks
