[QUOTE="KMixson, post: 167258, member: 432"] Pump the primer bulb. It should get hard letting you know the float valve is closing. If it does not get hard the valve may be stuck open letting too much fuel into the engine flooding it. Another thing to check is the fuel itself. Did you purchase fuel for it since your first outing after cleaning the carb? I purchased some fuel one time that my motor did not like at all. I put some fresh fuel in it and it fired right up.
