    7.25 Craftsman self propelled lawnmower won't start after new carb install?

    So, after much wasted time and money, you were right, the carb was wrong, right part # from my manual, just the wrong carb and plug coming from amazon!

    Okay, so, take as wire, like an electric kinda wire? Jimmy bow jang a longer wire, so that it reaches where I can see it kinda thing? 😬😏 I know, I'm almost painful with this, I just didn't do this before! Once again sorry for my ignorance and thanks for your time!

    7.25 Craftsman self propelled lawnmower won't start after new carb install?

    🙏😁 Thank you for that! I will watch that video now! I was trying to figure out how to test for a "full" spark all by myself! I don't have someone to help or watch, I'm a micky bojang kinda female making due! Using what I have for tools! PS, I use to be an auto mech, eons ago,😬 but never did...

    I just ordered a needle and seat for my old carb, sick of screwing around! Looks like the carb I bought is different (like you said) then the brigg's part # I ordered, 🤨 now fuel is pouring out the carb intake! 👍 So I ordered a needle and seat for that issue! Well at least I'm learning...

    7.25 Craftsman self propelled lawnmower won't start after new carb install?

    Oh that is super great to hear,😟 yes I did get it off amazon!!! I just checked the valve timing and it is correct, but I watched a video where the cam shaft timing was out, even though the valve timing looked okay! Holy frickin can of worms, I'd rather be baking cookies right about now! Thanks...

    If you meant the new spark plug may not be good? I did order two new plugs yesterday, just in case the one I got is a dud? It's hard to check the strength of spark by myself, but will figure that out! Thanks for your input! 😊

    7.25 Craftsman self propelled lawnmower won't start after new carb install?

    Hi, thanks so much for taking the time to reply! I will do that, as I was going to venture into the auto choke system as well just in case it was flooding? so I will check the timing too while I'm in there! So, if the timing is out? and it ran before my changing the carb, considering it was...

    7.25 Craftsman self propelled lawnmower won't start after new carb install?

    Hi all, my 2011, 7.25 craftsman lawnmower still doesn't want to start after installing a "new" carburetor, filter, air filter, new plug, and it's actually worse now that I put on a new carb. It was hard starting before the new carb (first start), but it at least started after oh, 😬10 pulls. Now...
