what does this mean? How does it run or sound?

Remove the gas cap, and try again. If the vent on the cap is plugged, it will crank, but won't run long.

If it has a choke, verify that it is on (closed) when the engine is off and cold. Verify that it is off (open) after the engine starts.

replaced all gaskets and put a new carb took care of problem
thanks for all the help
have a blessed day
