Default Briggs & Stratton Engine Problem

Those screens need to be drilled out and thrown away. We had EVERY one we
ever bought clog WITH the proper mix and all day WOT use.

Really, take a good look at it. I had a string trimmer with similar
start/die problems, that I spent weeks on. Rebuilt the fuel pump, etc.
Then I cleaned the 'spark suppressor' screen, and it's run perfectly
since.

I've since been told that running small engines at less than WOT will
load them up with carbon.
