Hi,
My mower starts up, but then quickly shuts down after one second. I've done the following:
There is a crack in the primer bulb, but since I'm using starting fluid, does the crack in the primer bulb matter? If I attempt to use the primer bulb, no gas gets pumped into the carb.
One additional clue...My mower initially shut down after 20 minutes of mowing. I haven't been able to get it started again.
Does anyone have any thoughts on what I might check or try doing? I've ordered a new primer bulb so that I can rule that out as the problem. I'm thinking of taking the carb off and cleaning it.
Thank you,
Scott

- Used carb cleaner to clean out main jet holes.
- Used starter fluid to try to get the mower started.
