When I start the mower, I try to start it with the throttle all the way up which is choking it. Even if I try to start it in a lower setting, it does the same. For example, when cold starting it, I put the throttle all the way and try cranking it. No luck regardless of where I move the throttle. Once it gets going, I ran it for a good 10-15 minutes mowing with no issues at all. If I stop and try restarting(with warm engine and throttle in mid position) it just tries to crank over and over. The minute I put a little gas into air hatch, it fires right up and does fine.

I think the fuel filter is not that old, but we are in a VERY dusty area. I was going to change that with the other stuff when I buy the whole maintenance kit, and I figured I could blow out the fuel lines as well.

I did buy some STA-BIL to put in already just hoping it may be something that can help, however I havent had the chance to put it in.

Just didn't know if I was on the right track with everything, or if maybe there is something else I am missing that may be a bigger issue(or even a smaller one I am overlooking).
