Hello all,

First time post, I was browsing the forum on getting some help on a
Brand:Briggs & Stratton
Model:13L332/0117-F8
Vanguard Power Rake
After confirming spark and that the fuel line was getting fuel to the cut off, I was starting to be at a loss. If I put fuel down the carb it would fire up briefly then throttle up then die.

I did some cleaning and blowing out of the carb, removed the bowl etc... I was about to just buy a new carb and took one more stab at it. In not sure what this is called but it's at the bottom of the cut off valve clear so you can see fuel (there was always fuel showing but it wasn't getting to the bowl of the carb. I removed it and there is a very fine metal mesh screen that covers the return path for the fuel. Cleaned it up and I'm up and running. I just wanted to thank everyone and give a little back. Picture attached of what removed and cleaned.

That is the sediment bowl with included screen filter. The water and heavy stuff goes to the bottom and the finer stuff gets caught in the screen.
