JOEPOE1977 2 #1 Posted Sunday at 07:53 PM Good afternoon on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. I have a 1990 Wheel Horse 310-8 tractor. I got it running. I ran it for ten shut it off went to restart it again no luck. I took off the air cleaner put a little gas in the the carburetor it ran again. Shut it off same thing will not start until I put gas in the carburetor. All help again will be much appreciated from all of you. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Another option would be to add a primer bulb or electric fuel pump. Lots of threads on here about any of those. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

An old fuel line can have minute cracks in it that won't leak gas yet but will allow air into the line and the fuel pump can't pump air. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

While fuel line is a good idea, the fact that gas is getting to the carburetor indicates that the problem is within the carburetor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
