Hi, I have a Toro lawnmower. But this is a general question for any similar small engines w/these symptoms. I have two engines now that have ignition OK, but will not continue to run.
The first engine, after one ignition using the starter fluid, will run about 3 seconds and die.
It was starting fine but not idling well so I squirted just a little carb cleaner into the air intake (throttle housing) to start it . So it acts like it
is not getting the gas.
The other small engine: this one doesn't need starter fluid to get it to ignite, it runs for only 3 seconds and dies. Again, on that one, seem it is not getting any gas.
Thanks for your help, Steve
