    My craftsman t1000 barely runs with a brand new carburetor on it
    My t1000 had a bad carburetor, I replaced it with a new Kohler(exact match). Mower won't start. Sometimes it will run at a very low rpm, sometimes it coughs and sputters. New plug, new air filter, new oil, filter, new gas, new gas filter. What am I missing??
