    Boulen riding law mower won't start
    Engine turns over but won't start;nor fire. I've replaced the spark plug & fuel filter/fuel; no luck. Also cleaned the air filter as we'll; nothing. If I let it sit over night the first crank with the choke on it will try to fire, then nothing.

    Make sure fuel is getting to the carb bowl. Does this have a carb solenoid? Is power getting to it?

    Tomorrow morning full choke and throttle, turn the key. If it tries to start then open the choke and try again. When did it last run? Fresh fuel?
