I just bought a troy built push mower off Craigslist. It wasn't running but Ive put a new air filter, cleaned the gas tank, and carb. However, it isn't running still. I put b12 chem tool in and it fired up but after I let it run through I put new gas in and now wont run? Do y'all have any idea on why this is?

I have a Troy Built self propelled an my float gets stuck from time to time for no apparent reason. I just remove the bowl and spray some carb cleaner on and around the float and it runs good as new.

Briggs engine? Does it have a primer! If you take the air filter off and hit the primer. Is it pulling gas? Is it an auto choke model? If so, is the choke working?
