It sounds like your fuel pump is bad. try taking the fuel line loose from the carb and turning it over. If no fuel comes out, replace the filter and try again. Still no fuel, replace the pump. You've got to get fuel to the carb.

You have a 1993 Camaro it runs rough when you first start it then it dies you try to start it again and it wont whats up?

There's possibly several things going on. Change the sparkplugs, clean the carburetor with some carb cleaner. You'll have to take off the airfilter. Try starting the car. If it will not start pour high octane fuel into the carburetor. This will bypass the fuel pump. If it starts smooth you'll need to replace the fuel pump.

Why does gas pour out when you prime your snow blower?

Its most likely going to be your carb. The needle and seat can be sticking and allowing fuel to flow all the time as opposed to when it is needed. Try to get a rebuild kit for the carb and try it again.


If your 1983 Ford pick-up will not start were do you start trouble shooting?

Check battery first for proper voltage. If battery is good and your engine will turn over, check for ignition spark through ignition cables to spark plugs. If you have spark, check for proper fuel pressure. If battery is good but engine will not crank, suspect either the starter, solenoid, or ignition switch. If your problem is not caused by one of these, consult a mechanic. Look to see if the carburetor is working correct, if so try putting some gas down the carburetor, NOT A LOT or you will make the biggest back fire u have ever seen coming out of the carburetor, if you put to much gas in the carburetor step back and try and start it. Do this after u have tryed the other suggestions from the first post..


My son ran mini bike out of gas put old dirty gas in then new gas I drained carb mini bike pops out the muffler wont start?

Try draining the gas tank completely and then Put new gas in with fuel stabilizer. Then spray starter fluid (wwd 40 works) into carburetor and start engine!! I hope this works if not then you might want to take it to a professional.
