I have been using mower all summer and the engine fire up for about 30 seconds and died, tank is full, it is pumping gas to carb. But won't start. Primed carb. And engine starts on primed fuel and then dies. Any Ideas?

Replace fuel solenoid on carb bowl.

Fuel solenoid opens and closes fine when you cycle the key, I have bought a new carb but still have the old one. Motor runs great with new carb but would still like to know what is wrong with the old one.

Hi,
Clogged(partially) above the inlet needle.
