Recently purchase a White/MTD 38 Inch Riding mower. Overall condition is good. Has sat for a while. Drained gas tank and float bowl. Replaced fuel filter and filled with fresh gas. Drained engine oil. Replaced oil filter and refilled with new oil. Had to prime with a little raw gas down the carb to get it to start. Once running, it runs great. I have put about 3 hours on the engine. It continues to require a priming on initial start up. Choke is closing fully. Any ideas from anyone would be appreciated.
