Model 31r907 0006 g1.
Brand new engine i bought to replace a dead Kohler on my walk behind mower. I have it all installed, pulleys and belts all adjusted and on the crankshaft. Gravity feed fuel line good to go with the fuel shut off valve turned on, gas down in the carb... And it won't crank over. It tries, but never fully turns over. It's been quite frustrating since its a brand new engine. I'm not sure if I'm missing a step or what. I'm going to pick up a spark plug tester to make sure its getting spark. My brother in-law suggested it might either be the spark or carb...
Any thoughts? Am i missing something? B&S help line was no help as they dont have any technical help, but instead refer you to a local mechanic.
