Hello everyone. New here so hope I don't screw up. I've never had the knack for small engines, but I think I can handle the carb on a walk behind mower with ya'lls help.
I'm from South Louisiana and having a problem with Bolens model 11A-A14A065 with briggs engine won't start. When I fiddled with the lever on the carb near the engine (between the carb and the engine) it started for a second, then died. What is this lever and could something be clogged in there?
I was told by my repair guy to use Seafoam as an additive to the fuel and have been doing that faithfully, so I'm confused. The only thing I can think of is that it's been really dry and dusty lately and maybe that is causing trouble, although I've been cleaning the air filter.
