To all,
I have searched the forums and I have a lot of small engine experience but I am just stumped because I can't figure out the problem. I replaced my old worn out 330 magnum carb with a Caltric $41 carb that had great reviews on amazon. As soon as I put it on it ran great with the air filter lid off (a little rich with it on). Started great and ran great throughout the entire rpm range. All of the sudden it wouldn't start and will fire once or twice but will never run. I've tried choke, throttle, starter fluid it will work for a second. I've cleaned the brand new carb thoroughly, it has great spark, 65 compression. I've done all I can think of and it still just fires once or twice and shuts off. Any ideas would be appreciated!!! I have the carb off again to try to clean because I feel that it has to be a gas issue. Thank y'all!!
