    Exactly what I plan to do with my free 20" mower tonight after work. (Identical mower 2 years old) I'm sure the main jet is the culprit, but I will go through all the stuff you did in the video. This will help a lot, thanks!

    This is exactly what is happening to mine. Regapped the plug and some starter fluid and it runs for a moment. Now, to narrow the focus and clean the tank/fuel line and probably the carb.

    I've been trying to get my mowers going. The only thing I'm confused on is the hole on the white piece of the carburetor. I can't see to the back of it. Looks kinda like rust. I've picked at it the best I could but can't fully see to the back.
    In your video, I seen you spray carb cleaner from the bottom and it shot out the top. I was thinking now about taking a really thin drill bit and seeing if I could drill that hole out (below the silver ball).
    Thoughts on this would be appreciated!

    • @tongo117
      @tongo117  Рік тому +1

      yeah if you spray from the bottom like I do around 04:08 it should come out at the top.. a drill bit should work as long it's small enough to clear the obstruction without making the hole bigger..

  • @THEKLEVER187
    @THEKLEVER187 Рік тому

    I had the same exact problem, I followed all directions on this video but it still won’t start up , however if I spray starter fluid it runs for a second . I did notice the priming button seems to not tighten up when pumped ,could that be the issue ?

    • @tongo117
      @tongo117  Рік тому

      A bad primer should not make the engine stall.. The engine needs fuel, spark and air in order to run.. So if it runs for a second with starting fluid you briefly have all three.. Then you lose one and it dies.. Question is which one are you losing? Could be that you still have a fuel supply issue even though you cleaned everything.. Or, clogged vent on fuel cap could restrict air which could cause stalling also.. And fresh gasoline.. that's a definite must have..

    @Magnus82386 10 місяців тому

    I have this exact same mower. Its only about 2 years old. It starts runs for a second then dies. I've seen several videos all identical to this one and i've followed them exactly and I can get my to start. I took apart the carburetor 3 times by now to make sure I have everything right and cleaned it as best I can. The holes are all clear and the spray goes right through. I changed the spark plug, cleaned the gas tank, and replaced all the fuel with brand new fuel. I have to prime it about 5-6 times for it to start, but then it dies after a couple seconds. It does the exact same thing it was doing before I started working on it. Its driving me crazy. Any idea what I can do?
    Oh also I cleaned the air filter and tried starting it with and without it.

      if the mower runs ok with it being loose I wouldn't worry about it.. if it's so loose that it's going to fall off you could glue it back on..
