Model #104m020126f1 no start

[chris1976]

I have a power washer that was used once last year and stored inside the house now it will not start it has a briggs motor #104m020126f1

I have changed out the gas, took the carb out and used carb cleaner on it, i did not take it apart it's made of plastic! it all looks brand new.

If i spray starter fluid in the carb it will run for a few sec, i tried this a few times.

Since it will run for a few sec on starter fluid wouldn't that mean it's the carb? It has a No prime, no choke. Power washer Model #CMXGWAS020733

Any suggestions?

Sounds like a good carb cleaning is in order
I wouldn't go as far as using the drill bits he uses though.

First one i have ever seen made of plastic.

one thing i will say for plastic, is you don't get as much rust and corrosion as the metal/aluminum ones when the ethanol starts holding water.

So you don't think it's a good idea to use a drill bit since he thinks the hole is to small?

All depends on your skill level and IF you need to do it.
