Jman7290 10 #1 Posted May 4, 2014 It will run the first time that I try to start it for about 20 seconds then shut off. It just spits gas out of the exhaust and acts like it is flooded out. I cleaned and rebuilt the carb, the float is not stuck. What else will cause it to flood like that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daveoman1966 3,632 #2 Posted May 4, 2014 Maybe the float...doesn't. Possible pin-hole. Did you clean the needle & seat valve, or replace it? Replace it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jman7290 10 #3 Posted May 4, 2014 Got it thanks, the float was full of gas. Going to try to find the hole and solder it up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
