Re: Lawnmower Engine Starting Tips??

Well, the carb was cleaned and sealed back on the gas tank and reinstalled on the engine. I got it to run really good for about a minute. I took it all the way through the throttle up to WOT and it was really punchy. The only thing is that is would bog down at idle, and if I did not rev it back up, I knew it would stall. So, I ran it for about a minute then I let it stall so I could adjust the idle stop screw (screwdriver wasn't withing reach while running).

Anyway, I never could get it going again. Only a few seconds at a time by putting fuel right into the carb.

So anyway, I've given up. This week I might take it to the lawnmower shop and see what they say.
