It’s always been hard to start, with slightly slower cranking speed compared to my other MF 35.
New starter. Gas tank, bowl and screen filter cleaned, carburetor TSX 683 kit done, initial needle settings both 1 turn out, good flow out of carburetor drain when opened. I haven’t adjusted carburetor yet following kit.
Has older style oil filter, inner replacement type, oil changed recently. Recently installed alternator, good voltage compared to previous barely enough with generator.
Spark plugs 1 and 4 routinely foul, but I clean regularly prior to starting.
Starts after many tries, appears to need max gas on lever. Seems to idle better and lower rpm now without stalling, but don’t want to burn out another starter (replaced 3 years ago).
Appreciate thoughts to help.
