Well I removed the Carburetor cleaner and reinstalled of a few minutes it started and ran for a little bit, I tried to mow and the thing quit again after about 5 minutes of mowing. Now it is stuck about 80 yards from the house and only starts and dies within 2 seconds again. What now? Get me...

Thanks. Where can I get a good one online. As reasonable price.. not 2 or 3 hundred dollars

I always write and say it's a FR but actually it is an FD 731. Need to edit my post

Looking for a replacement carburetor for this badboy. I have replaced everything else. It now starts pretty easy but only runs for a few seconds..... Again.I did replace the carburetor solenoid, which was also bad and it at least starts again. It seems to a fuel problem and I have replaced the...

Thanks.

Tried cleaning the solenoid with carb cleaner and still no go. It still makes the clicking sound. Question, With the solenoid out of the carb and the wire attached, touching the ground to. get a small spark (of course) but no clicking or solenoid pin moving. Does that seen right. Shouldn't it...

Thank you I'll give that a try. That one is something I wish I had thought of weeks ago.
