Hi y'all, i just got a Briggs And Stratton snapper push mower from a friend who told me that all it needed was a carb cleaning. So i cleaned the carb (twice!) and it still will not start. I even checked to see if it had spark and it does. The only thing that i have noticed is that after i took the carb out and cleaned it the primer was not getting gas to prime with. But i know that gas is getting into the bowl of the carb. The thing has fresh gas in it and I am totally lost on where to go next. Any thoughts or opinions on how to get this running will be greatly appreciated! :smile:

If it's like my older Big Six Briggs the bulb only pushes are through small hole where carb mates to air cleaner backing which blows gas from bowl to to intake. I could be you have a warped air cleaner backing as I've seen this problem noted in other threads. Some say you can try using 2 gaskets.
