Two snows ago, my 8N ran great until the very end of my plowing when it started wanting to die in reverse. I thought it was because I was low on fuel so I shut it down, ran to the gas station, and then filled it up. Ran good.
One snow ago, it ran awful all the time (sputtering, wanting to stall) until I pulled the choke partway out and it ran good the entire time I was plowing.
Two days ago, fired up on choke and died immediately when I turned off the choke. On full choke, it would die after about 20 seconds of running like garbage.
It’s got a full tank of fresh fuel and the carb is getting a steady flow of fuel. Plugs and wires are brand new. Carb rebuild time?
