Last week it started up but put-put-putted over to the shop where I shut it off. Then it wouldn't start again. It turned over but wouldn't run.
Checked the battery.
Changed the plug.
Changed the fuel filter.
None of those helped.
Friend stopped by, said it was a stuck choke, fiddled with something, it started right up and I mowed for 3 hours, no problem. This week - same thing except it starts and runs about 2 seconds then shuts down.
I've checked the battery - full charge.
The fuel is fresh.
Spark plug is clean.
No trash in the fuel filter or tank.
Above mentioned friend is out of town. :laughing:
I'm no mechanic but can work with a manual if I had one.
Any suggestions for a lady with tools and not afraid to get dirty?
I may not know all the part names but will do my best to follow along if anyone has any suggestions.
