Mounted on 2013 Snapper Rotary Brush Cutter. New last summer & ran about three tanks of gasoline (with stabilizer) through it. End of season closed fuel valve and ran 'til empty. Then disconnected fuel line and emptied tank completely. Yesterday filled halfway with new gasoline with stabilzer. Started and ran fine for about 20 minutes and then quit. Plenty of fuel in tank. Will not start. Fires one or two times and quits.
Any suggestions?


Check for spark at plug?

Check and/or replace spark plug?

Is spark plug wet?

Check gas tank vent?

Fuel line plugged?

Carburetor/intake manifold mounting bolts tight?
