I'll get some time on it today. Puzzling me. I get a strong 3 sec run, then winds down to stop. Gotta think fuel decrease. Will check for consistent spark but doubt coil craps out after 3 secs.

Good tip. Will look this pm.

Thanks, Auto Doc's. I'll chase fuel delivery.

11A-A22J766 mower. Engine is a Chinese Honda clone 140cc. I cleaned carb w/ USC = no joy. New carb installed = no joy. Valve lash good at .005 Int & Exh. I can only get a 3 second run - seems moderately strong. Sounds like fuel delivery, eh? Fuel line flows adequately out of tank. Governor...

Around here, I'd list for $90, then back off to $80. Back further down if no serious bites.

Briggs model #? Stamped in a valve cover or shroud.

I really liked Season 1 but Mrs Norris is quite irritating. Sling Blade is a classic.

Well....30 gb is minimum for OS & programs that I want. Debian WILL install w/ only 1 gb free space. You could have a dual boot system - choose Windoze or Linux from boot loader. I've had errors with that and don't trust it for important stuff. Is this a laptop w/ only 1 HDD slot?

30 gb minimum Hard Disk Drive space for Operating System. I put the OS on it's own Solid State Drive - much faster than older platter-wand mechanical HDDs. Installation USB stick - probably fit on 1 gb stick. 120gb SSDs are ~$15 these days.

I'm trying a new to me Linux - Debian 12.8 w/ XFCE. Faster & more stable than Ubuntu 24.04.1 (Ubuntu is based on Debian). The distro might not have all the pkgs you need but fairly easy to find/install. Eg: I had to add 2 pkgs to mount my Moto Edge phone for file transfer.

Glad to hear it's going fairly smoothly!

I switched to Linux years ago. Tried 10 different distros. Top of list = Linux Lite 6.0, Mint 21.3, Xubuntu 24.04. All 3 are Ubuntu based and easy to transition from Windows. So, it really boils down to what "desktop" (GUI) you prefer. I like XFCE of Xubuntu - an official flavor of Ubuntu w/ 3...

What country are you? The manual for what country? USA 87 octane (R+M/2) would be 90.5 Octane (RON) in Europe.

You need engine model#. Will be on valve cover or engine block near spark plug. Eg: 126M02-1015-F1

Search that model # & find: MTD 753-06190 Carburetor.
