    Briggs starts runs and dies and restarts
    Hello everybody
    I have a briggs model 310707 type 0137-e1 Code 020208ZE
    It starts, runs for a while then starts to sputter spit and sometimes backfire and quit
    After it quits it has spark but there seems to be a abundance of fuel in the top of the carburetor. It has a NIKI carburetor. It has a fuel selonoid. The float doesn't seem to have any holes. The gas cap is not blocked. It seems like it floods it self out. Can anybody help
    Thanks Craney

    It is a five hp horizontal briggs. And just for FYI the problem is solved. For anyone experiencing this, it is a pulsa jet carb. With a pump on the side. Changed the diaphram spring and cap in the pump. It works like a charm. Problem was the pump wasn't keeping up with the carburetor's needs.

1990 Eagle Talon starts, runs 2 seconds, dies. [ 3 Answers ]

My 1990 Eagle Talon turbo AWD starts, runs about 2 seconds, then dies. It just started doing this when I took the ECM out from under the dash to look at the wiring. Sometimes by wiggling the wires around I can get it to run normally (not die). Then while it is running, if I wiggle the wires...
