Hi.
I'm new to this forum, so forgive me if I don't provide you with accurate information.
Okay, so, I was just mowing and it ran out of gas. Well, I put more gas in it. It cranked - but, like in 10 seconds it idled down. It now wont crank. When it does, it idles down.
How do I fix?

Before anyone asks crank means start and run.

You mite not have gas getting up to the carb yet.
Are you using the choke?

Does it have a choke?

Carscw,
Hmmmm...I'm don't think my lawn mower has a choke. Nor a air filter (is that normal?). me and my dad got it at a flee market. We think that it has been "rigged" (cause it does not have a air filter!).

Fish,
I don't think so.

Does it have a primer bulb? How about finding some model numbers off of the engine so we know what you have.

Can you put up a few pics of it?

Fish,
Don't know where the model numbers are. This is what I found:
21" cut.
Self propelled.
725 EX series.
190cc.

and heres a pic similar to it. (i can't take any pics cause I don't have a camera).

mine does not have a bag in the back or front.

PS,
I'm really inexperienced as you probably can tell. :p

Every engine has a air filter.

Carscw,
Well, mine does not. As I said, it was rigged. the guy we bought it from was working on it. So, yeah.
