Oh......Bad kill switch? I had that problem once.
I just checked she said it was the vacuum hose.......
It runs when you prime the heck out of it...but then it dies. It is like it is running off the gas you prime in and then not getting any more gas. I don't know a lot about how everything works but that seems to be the case.Luke
I just checked we have a hoseless vaccuum...
There is a little screen in the carb that has some Jelly like crap on it i'll bet money. Have to take the carb off and apart to get to it. If your scared to try you shouldn't try if you get my meaning.
Plugged jet inside the carb?
Nice. I will check that out this week...Luke
I see, i have never had one apart but i know its usually the jets in my sleds and wood splitter.
I even tried shutting it all the way down and restarting it, didnt help.
Stuff that sits and wont start like wood splitters, sleds and even augers do get that Green crap growing on the Jets. If he hadn't already been using this I would say the same thing. Most likely the ethanol with some water made it from the gas can in there. As my old Buddy the Cap said"If it has a spark plug or sits to pee it's going to give you problems"
The ones with plugs can be fixed.
