"Sorry to hear of your problem
"Sorry to hear of your problem. Sometimes after sitting the float needle
in the carb can become cocked or gummed up and will not seal when the
carb gets full. There is a drain screw at the bottom of the bowl.
Sometimes you can loosen that screw, put a rag under the carb, and flush
the bowl with fuel from the primer bulb. Tap the carb lightly and it may
kick the needle in place. Do not tap too hard. If it has been sitting
very much, then get some fresh fuel, mix Sea Foam (available at most
auto parts stores), in the fuel. Prime the carb and then run the engine
while unhooking the fuel line and make sure it gets some of the new fuel
in the carb. Let it sit over night and it may solve your problem. If not
then the carb will have to be removed and cleaned, preferably at a
dealer , unless you are familiar with the tiny passages inside. After
you get it going, run this mix all the time and you will cut the problem
way down. Also leave the tank full and the carb full when sitting to
keep moisture from mixing with the fuel. Just be sure to disconnect the
line from the engine, but don't run dry. Hope this helps"
