Oh, I stopped the gas leak. Then I received the air vane spring, put it on, and same problem, except it won't even keep running now.

This picture shows what I installed an what it looks like now.

The air vane spring arrived today. I put in on and that did not fix the issue. When this began, I could start the mower with carb cleaner sprayed in the carb, and it would keep running, but would not start pulling the rope, even after the engine was warm. Now, the carb is completely...

I removed the carb, added a little grease to the bowl, added the bowl bolt, reinstalled the carb, and...it still leaked. But, I cranked the bolt a little more tight, and it stopped! The air vane spring did not come. Delivery was delayed until tomorrow.

Hello Rivet! I will give that a try. I will check that. I also need to opinions on the air vane spring. I never found one. Is it missing, or does this engine have one?

Yes, leaking from the bowl bolt. Gasket is new from rebuild kit. I will tighten more. I was afraid of over tightening.

UPDATE: I’m a total newbie at small engines, and I’ve had a lot fun with this. I received the carb rebuild kit and cleaned/rebuilt the carburetor. I put all together, and as I was doing that, discovered there isn’t any air vane spring. That was most likely the issue all along. My...

No kits in this town! I will have to order and wait. :-(

Everything has been described clearly. Today I have removed the carb and currently cleaning it. I'm going to need to get a gasket kit as soon as I determine the nmber. I will update all.

Newj day! Air Vane is a new term for me. I will check out all the ideas.

In the ten years I've had this mower, I never noticed a primer bulb. I will look for it.

Wow, thank you very much. One final detail to be sure it doesn't change anything, I can let the mower run for, let's say 30 minutes, then turn it off. It's good and warm now, and, I have the same problem. It doesn't matter how long the engine runs. And when I engage the blade, it does it well.

Okay, that info helped! Here it is.

This is the only other sticker I could find.

I took that number off of this sticker.

Yes, the Toro is a 20333 Personal Pace. Serial number is: 10 02 16 56 60304. I can take and add some pictures if needed.

I have a Toro 190cc. It won't start when pulling the cord. It will start if I spray carb cleaner in the carb and pull the cord. And, it will continue to run fine until I turn it off. But, it will not start by just pulling the cord. I must spray the carb cleaner to start it.
