K161 - Cub 72
So here's my story.... I was having some issues keeping my "new" Cub 72 running smooth so I cleaned / rebuilt carb. Then reinstalled and adjusted according to the manual I found on this site. (Issue I was having was it would turn over and fire up, running little while they stall out and die. Maybe run 10 sec, maybe 5 min, then die.)
After carb clean/rebuild & re-install ....
Now it only fires with quick mist of starter fluid or carb cleaner, but as soon as it fires and turns over, it dies out. Without starter fluid it wont fire and turn over, just chugs and chugs and chugs forever until I kill the battery lol. (Like if you had a flooded engine)
Some of the things I've already done ....
-Installed new spark plug, it could use a new spark plug wire but it still works.
-Adjusted the points but have not cleaned yet
I'm no expert, I know enough to be dangerous LOL. Any advice would be great!
