Check the fluids and filled it up. Choked it... started... it ran fine for about 15 seconds and then shut down. Acted flooded for a while started up again ran for 15 seconds and shut down this continued about 10 times in a row. I took the air filter off and when quits it sucks a bunch of gasoline into the carburetor. I'll see if I can attach a short video after my first day. So... I bought a new carb and armature. Installed them both tonight... Fired right up... ran for 15 seconds and died WHAT THE HECK??? post edited by SpudMuffin - 2023/05/09 22:25:20 Quote #1 1 Reply Related Threads
