Honda mower quite
I have a Honda HRT216SDA mower that I am having a problem with; that I
hope someone can help solve. It starts fine but after about 30 seconds it quits. It seems like it runs out of gas. If I let it sit dor a miniute or two it will start again but run no more that ~30 seconds. The gas is clean. The float in the carburetor is not stuck, carburetor is clean. All linkages look fine. Anything else I can check? |

Or just loosen the cap a little to allow air in. |

Anyone know how long a mower will run with just the amount of gas in the carburator? The reason I ask is that if I start the mower with the gas valve CLOSED the mower runs about the same time as with it open. If it seems I am spending more time on this than needed, I agree I am! I have a second mower that I cut my grass with and the Honda in just bugging me so mutch I just do not want to give up! |
