Could be that the fuel filter is clogged and not allowing sufficient fuel to pass to the carburetor; you might also check the carburetor adjustment needle(s) to see if they may have rattled toward the closed postion.

Why does 2 stoke mower only run with choke on?

Obviously a weak mixture, as using the choke makes the mixture richer. Quite possibly there's an air leak between the carburettor and manifold


Problems with hard to start lawn mower Fuel is fresh. New Plug. Has new spark coil installed.New Carbutor kit was installed. Thanks for any help?

A problem with a hard to start lawn mower can possibly be fixed by playing with the choke mechanism. Turn the choke all the way out and pump the gas three times, then close the choke nearly all the way and try the key. If the mower does not start, try again pumping only twice.

How do you start a lawn mower?

AnswerI can only give you a generic answer bc there are alot of different mowers out there. If it has a priming bulb you want to push it (usually about three or four times). Then you squeeze the safety lever at the handle and the pull the pull chord. If it has a maual choke selector then you first put the lever in the CHOKE position and the start the mower and then gradually push the lever to the RUN position as it is warming up. Also, always make sure the spark plug wire is fully connected and it has fuel before trying to start it to avoid feeling kinda stupid later. Hope this helps and good luck.
