I believe I added some bad gas to the tank and mower died 2 minutes after staring. Can't get it re-started. I drained a bunch of gas from the tank and all of the lines, changed the fuel filter, which was nasty, but still won't start. I can get it to start briefly with a shot of carb cleaner. What else do I need to check.

Drain carb bowl & add fresh gas.

^^^ What Buddy said

Flush the tank out with gas. Make sure you have good fuel flow AT the carburetor. Remove fuel line at the carb and drain into a glass jar.

Well, the starter gear needs replacing.
