Voorroooom!
Engine sprang to life and ran like normal. Mowed some leaves in 40 MPH winds just to satisfy myself. After cleaning leaf matter out of my ears, I was satisfied and quite happy to have my mower back among the living. 
Sincere thanks to all for your advice on the pump and carb cleaner, etc. |
Hope you also changed the oil and filter if it has one. Oil probably has gas in it, not good for bearings.
