Hello Ihave a Weed Eater lawn mower with a Briggs & Stratton engine. Thee Engine runs when primed then cuts out. I hardly got to use it ne season. I have oa lawn mower that sits out side with a cover in all kinds of weather and still starts. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Frustrated in Quakertown, Pa.

Those little engine run on a mix of oil and gas as you know. The gas evaporates faster than oil so you get some sludge and junk after a seaon of sitting. Dump the fiel and add just a cup with a few onces of SeaFoam or other good carg cleaner. Keep it running by primimng frequently and the carb cleaner should get rid of the junk.
