Hi, JP here in CT. Purchased Bolens 21" push mower new in 2017 for maintaining the Mother in law's lawn in the next town over from me. Mower has a B&S 500E-140cc engine. Funny thing is that the Engine Model Number does not exist anywhere in the model number break downs I have found online or at the B&S web site. My model has 2 letters in it which does not seem to match anything I have seen & the closest I have found for manuals comes up as a 500E 146cc instead of 140cc. When looking for parts, they have so many revisions, that I cannot decipher the date codes given by the part numbers. Mower suddenly will not start because it is Fuel Starved & I cannot figure out why. Very Frustrating!
