Long story short....I acquired the mower from an elderly couple that went into a condo.
It's a model 4263 (1950-1988). I downloaded the service manual but don't see a prime butoon described.
Is there one on this mower?
The only way I can start it is priming the cylinder by inserting fuel directly through the spark plug opening. About a half straw full gets the job done. Once started the mower runs pretty well. If I stop it it starts again in one pull.
I'll assume it's in need of a tune up but seeing how well it starts if I prime the cylinder I figured that's all I need for now :smile:
