I have an 8hp that will run for 2 mins or so and then seems to run out of gas. If I prime the line it will not immediately restart. After about 2 mins , it starts and runs great again. I have an in line clear filter that seems to pass fuel with no problem and has been replaced. I have disassembled the carb cleaned the bowl and ports with carb cleaner and blown out the various passages. It seemed to run better for an hr or so and back to the same stalling routine. Its almost like the tank is not venting but recovers the vacume in time but thats not the problem. it also seems like the supply needle valve may be hanging almost closed?
The fuel is fresh and treated for the ethanol. I looked at the fuel pump diaphram and it looked ok. Ideas?
thx,
Alan
