    Briggs and stratton will crank only when I pour fuel in the air iintake
    13 hp Briggs will fire & crank if I pour fuel into air intake. I stops as soon as fuel in the intake is gone (just a few seconds). Replaced fuel lines, fuel pump, filers. Sprayed two cans of carb cleaner into and through the carb. It seems there is no pump pulse to the fuel pump. Any ideas?
