My yard is up to my goddamn knees because my rider briggs mower is a piece of ------- ----. It will only run with the choke all the way out.. turn choke off and it dies.. doesn't have enough ---- to engage the blade. put a 150.00 carb on it last year, put new coil on it, new plugs, checked all of the filters.. still same prob.

stop leaving fuel in it to go bad and you wont ---- up your diaphram, go get a carb kit.

ok this is the easiest fix there is, find the carb, find the bowl, reach underneath the bowl and feel for a bolt head, take that 'bolt' out which is actually a needle, have someone hold finger over hole, clean the needle with carb cleaner and ---- blow it out with a air comp, put needle back in and try to start it.

turn the needle out 3 turns from bottomed out SOFTLY. start it. take choke off slowly. if it dies lean.. richen it. if it chugs, lean it.
