I tried playing with the choke to see if it will run in a different position but it just dies out, no spitting or sputtering. Full throttle to off. BTW this site and the help has been great.

I agree with a fuel flow problem. My gas mixture in every single gas can is a few ounces of Marvel Mystery Oil and Star Tron gas stabilizer.

The crap they sell as gasoline now doesn't have much of a shelf life. The MMO and Star Tron help a lot.
