Anyone know anything about lawn mowers? Mine won't run

[Akula20342]

STOOPID lawn mower is messed up and I cna't figure it out. I'm also not a small engine repair god so I'm really trying to figure out why the engine is not getting fuel.... Check out this vid

Sorry for the quality of the video.... It wasn't something I had prepared for.

Runs when you prime it. Is the throttle cable installed correctly,

 

[Gotulookn]

Clean the carb out.

 

[McDeath08]

Prime it, start it and then turn the plate the spring is connected to and see if it gives the carb gas and runs.

 

[jsimpson32]

yeah, pull the carb out and clean it. Compressed air can be your friend

 

[Izhmash]

Yep, clean the carb. Pick up some carb cleaner.

 

[Akula20342]

Throttle cable is fine. its an auto choke. I'll try cleaning out the carburetor thanks guys

 

[Izhmash]

Also, you should pull your spark plug and make sure it's not too nasty looking. If you have a separate inline fuel filter, pull and empty or replace it. And, check the air filter. Lastly, always use fresh fuel. If you can find non-ethanol, use it.

Buy a new one

I had a stuck choke on my mower last I had to fix it. Too much air in the mix.

 

[Talk2dabullet]

Yup cable and carburetor that will do the trick

As others have said, take it off and blow it out.

Just for shits and giggles, take a look make sure the float isn't, for some reason,sticking closed when there is no pressure. It happens.

Pressing that bulb may be forcing fuel through the float chamber right now by virtue of the pressure.

But then again, it might be tiny aliens from the Zirgon Nebula sabotaging your mower.

Fucking Aliens!!!!!

Uncle Rob is insane but funnier than hell.

AKUKA I have a vast knowledge of small engines and I have mentally solved you problem. All you have to do is have one of your kids (if you have children) or the wife run along side and keep pressing the primer bulb. You're welcome. Anyone else have a deep problem feel free to contact me.............STRYKER. P.S. I hope someone can really solve your problem AKULA.
