My murray lawnmower with a 3.8 hp Tecumseh engine wont stay running until five pulls. I push the primer button 3 times and and pull it once and it fires right up....then dies. I does this five tiimes and then it stays running (barely) it misses and pops and does this until the engine is fully warmed up. Any ideas why? Btw this mower sat in my aunts garage for 18 years. I tore it completly Down and reassembled it( the carb too) and bought a new float and a new wire that holds the needle thing on, and only does this when its cold. Any ideas guys
