Ran out of gas with about 4-5 passes of my backyard left to mow yesterday and couldn't get my bricktop to start again after filling up (same gas). It usually starts pretty easily if it's been running, but it just wouldn't go -- the most I got was it firing a couple times amidst many minutes of priming/pulling/etc. It was running strong all the way through running out of gas. To get it to start cold, I almost always have to prime it a ton, then tip it over on the side and open the throttle to let the gas run down into to block, but after that, it would always start right up, level off and run very strong. It feels like it's got pretty strong compression and there's no play in the crankshaft to be detected at the top of the flywheel. Carburetor looks clean inside and the spark plug looks reasonable, plus it was just mowing...
Any ideas?
