Hello all-
I have a 5 year old Honda mower w/ a GCV160 engine. This year, it was not running smoothly after being stored for the winter season (always ran dry with stabilized fuel).
Instead of rebuilding the carb, I went ahead and replaced it with a new Honda carb as it was cheap and easy to do. I did this last weekend, and it started multiple times and ran great for that mowing session.
Today, the mower refuses to start (and stay running) after about 20 min of trying. It did start roughly 2x and quickly stalled- almost like fuel starvation...
The plug is new this year and is clean.
Any ideas at what I should look at before I start tearing into it again?
Thanks!
