Thanks very much Paul! I will conduct a complete inspection of all hoses this weekend and take a close look at the carb intake manifold. As far as the fuel...
You need to start with the basics. When it dies, or refuses to start, does it have a spark and is it getting gas? To check for a spark, remove the spark plug,...

Hello, I just found and joined this group in hopes that I can solve/discover an answer to this problem. I have no doubt that this problem has been addressed...
