Hello everyone. New to this site. Just purchased my 3rd mower, but first of any good quality. I bought a Honda HRS216 push mower. I noticed it was leaking a slight amount of gas from the carb area when it sat in the garage over night, it left a pool on the deck. So (Im handy), I opened the carb and saw a number of the gaskets were bad shape. I went to Honda and repalced them all along with a vent tube from the air filter onto the motor.
Heres my problem: Once I was done the mower started right up and seemed to run ok. But after a few min of running it seems really low on rpm's and kinda revs up/down on its own. It will do that for a few min then shuts off. Give it a pull and it starts right back up, then same, shuts off. I know motors and it seems fuel is the problem, but I can see how. Cleaned card, all parts were put on properly etc.... I can see no adjustment on how to turn up the rpm's at all. I must have pulled that carb off 5-6 times last night tring to figure it out. Any help would be great. BTW, this mower ran fine when it was slightly leaking gas.
