Running fine engine just died, very little fuel in line. Checked filter no problem. When i turn ignition on, no sound from fuel build up. Checked both fuses, good. What step next?

Hello,

Good that you let us know the basic engine model, but we need to know what machine this is on. Look for the manufacturers label and let us know the model and serial number.

This basic engine does not show to have an electric fuel pump, but it does have an electric solenoid valve on the bottom of the carburetor. You should hear a faint click at the carburetor each time the key is turned on.

From your description fuel is not getting pumped by the crankcase pulse pump when the engine is cranked.

Did you recently add fuel from a fuel can that has been sitting open. Possible water in the fuel?

Model 5901665 on a Snapper 200S, serial number 4000015531, model description S200XTBVE2861. I know it has fuel injections, not carburetor. But i have not been able to locate pump.
