This is a continuation of a problem I’ve been having for 6 months.
Last fall I was backing my 1010 into the shed when it suddenly started shooting foul smelling smoke out the exhaust. I shut it off and gas started pouring out of the carb air intake. I have done the following to no avail since:
Replace float, needle, seat, gaskets
Adjust float and other adjustment screws
Gone through carb multiple times
Replaced top half of carburetor with a spare I had in case it was cracked
I can get it to run poorly with about half to a third choke, but it still floods out the intake if I crank it for a bit.
Spark is not the issue. Anybody got any ideas? I’m at my wits end and out of ideas.
Thanks
