I have a craftsman 19.5HP rider that is 12 year old. It started surging the last two years and would backfire when shut off. Otherwise ran fine. This season it will not run. It starts when I prime with starting fluid, or pour gas in carb, but will not stay running on fuel from tank. I rebuilt the carb with a carb kit from sears, but still the same results. I disconnected the gas line at the fuel pump and there was some fuel there, but not much.
Any help would be appreciated.
