Was a lemon "new carb" turns out. Threw old one on w the new seals & works again. Thanks everyone, chinese carbs suck assssss

Yep just got a call, carb was bad. Even though it was brand new, it was a lemon lmao. Wasnt getting fuel

Its gravity fed, shop has the mower still, they think something did get gunked up somewhere, not sure where or how being As its getting fuel past the filter it appeared and the carb is brand new. We shall see though hopefully they call me back soon

Didn't even think about that rubber could fray off into the inlet on the carb, but will definitely keep you guys posted & sgkent ya carb ran fine for about a day & ever since its not started so assuming its not receiving gas. Its getting gas to the filter just not engine😂 will keep you all updated

No sir, it took me forever to figure out it wasn't the same engine as was made for the mower. But this is the one, starting fluid worked, I called the shop & they picked it up for a 3rd time lol. They said somehow its not getting fuel and will check for blocks I mean. I could do it but they...

My issue is that my carb has no solenoid 😅 I'll try that I appreciate you both. I'll keep you updated! Thank you

I honestly didn't see him ask that but okay, just be rude & say shit that makes no sense to someone who wouldn't ever get your reference. You never had to hop on with sarcastic things to begin with. If you don't want to help but its a 2004 Ariens Zoom34 with a Kohler Command 14hp engine from a...

Not you Sgkent but I tried that as well, that's when I killed it. I think I just overly fouled plug somehow. Got it charging for w couple hours, will check tmrw

What kinda smart ass waste of time answer was this. Could have stayed out of it if you didn't have anything helpful to say.

So I had a new plug in it but when I put the carb onto it, it got fouled probably from faulty carb that was leaking the couple weeks prior. Found it all black/sooty. Got new plug in. Well see once i get battery juiced back up

I had work done & I replaced plug, belt, fuel filter, carb etc. I was having level cut issues, and when the shop brought it back after that & popping the new carb on for me, it started right up & is level. Fast forward 2 days, it got warmer out but not hot, put it on choke as usual. Started for...

I had the issue with the non level deck. New carb put on & it started etc fine before the new carb. Now when I put the choke on, it starts for not even 1/2 second & dies. I want to call & see but I'm getting frustrated at this point. It sounds like its not getting fuel now almost & everything is...

ANSWER!!! so the shop had to bend the front right bracket backwards with a bar and some other stuff. The left one forward, & my left spindle was bent. So he bent it & put me a couple washes in it. Blades match in the middle. Its still wet, they claim they did a test cut & power washed it. Saw...

So I figured I believe the left spindle is bent. Finally! I kept measuring outside of blades vertically & horizontally blaming the deck. I met the two in the middle & left one sits lower. When I sharpened the blades it was flat so its gotta be my spindle! I'm 99% sure. Just updating you guys, I...

Update, I called the place that did it originally & they are picking it up Monday. Im too stubborn & should have done that originally but I'm fairly intelligent & do most work to my cars etc & idk. I just am trying to get my lawn are biz going & starting with residential yards I didn't think I'd...

Thank you, will try this next. I called shop to level it few weeks ago & after looking at it, I can tell they didn't touch it or I wouldn't be so confused ??‍♂ paid for it and all. I'm about to call & bitch but only reason I had them is because I couldn't figure it. When I got it back, left tire...

It won't let me post the photo for some reason but bracket arm for the back left piece to hang onto had decent bit of slop

So this was actually loose and dropped down about half inch! I got the two sides sane height from blade to ground and front to back is good on the right but left side is about 1/4" to 1/2" low on the front but its only front left but when I raise that one, it lifts whole left side up, I dropped...

So far I got: 1) back left thread is snug but not super tight on the bracket it hangs from & I have it placed in the middle. 2) back right is tight but the threads are as far out/low as it can go 3) front left is tight & threads are in the middle 4) front right is loose/not sitting right but in...

I don't see where I said duck? Lol But I already tried looking it up. It just shows how to level em but I appreciate it! I'll check springs but i don't believe that is it

I recently been having issues with the cut being slightly high on the right side. I know how to adjust the deck front/back & side/side. However screwed in the front left as far as it will go, got it decent & the right side is even front to back. But the right side sides about half inch too high...

Tread, its not super noticeable and the left side was low. Only reason I care so much is I'm pretty knowledgeable but also starting a lawncare biz so I want things working/looking mint

Thats definitely it, had no idea I just was choking it as I've been so use to separate choke mower. Such a rookie mistake ? thank you. Hopefully I didn't actually mess up anything cable wise & if my cut is still leaving unevenness, would a slightly bulge tire be to blame as I believe the last...

It runs fine like that, I just didn't know some were set up to choke at fullest throttle I didn't know that! Thank you

Oh really? I never had a mower that does that, yea running position is fine but full forward throttle chokes it def. I just had uneven tires I think one is warped from someone over inflating it so my cut was off & since my deck was leveled & sharp blades I assume it was bc full throttle wasnt...

They both appear to close. The blue definitely but the red one pushes to the left direction also (if ur looking at the pic)

Crankcase breather hose had big ole split in it, ordered new one & a carb since it was only $18- I been stressing with yards to do as I just started my own business. Is there any other reason it would choke out at full throttle if those don't work??

I found the right parts the engine is different. The guy who sold it to me didn't tell me that, found the new carb online if I need. I just hope I can find better videos on adjusting the throttle, the cable is fine but still dies in full throttle as it STILL closes the valves as soon as it hits...

My apologies the engine says 15hp Kohler command and the mower frame says 14hp. Might have a diff engine but that's probably why I can't find the same part. Idk model # for engine is CV15S special # is 41526 and displ # is 426 idk what else is needed there's a couple more numbers

I appreciate that but its already set up like so. It just seems to be a different carb than oem but if you would please look at my follow up posts & see what it might be? Like I said its fine until full throttle then it closes choke i guess and butterfly valve. Not sure if its supposed to but...

Well I popped off the carb to clean, choke plate/links seemed like they had lots of play when the throttle is lowest/mid. The screw on the choke plate coming off the throttle cable that pushes the choke links etc doesn't start pushing choke until its all the way full throttle. Then dies/bogs...

Its also a briggs 14.5hp engine, I can't find much on YouTube or online besides asking a forum about these

Thank you will definitely clean it, but how come full throttle still closes the butterfly valve completely? That mostly is what's killing my power, otherwise at high idle/running speed engine is mostly ok when the butterfly valve is open. Just not full power it seems

But I should add even when its open like this, it still doesn't seem to be running as high as it should. Carbs aren't hard to clean I know but why is it closing the flow & not running higher when I go to run full throttle

I got a 2004 Ariens Zoom34. I had the deck leveled etc. I was noticing odd level cuts, heard my engine might not be runnin fast enough. Turns out that & uneven tire pressure seems to be the blame. I have a slower time starting it btw also, but I noticed at idle & high idle it is okay (I even...
