You guessed it! I took the carburetor apart! Not knowing what I was doing, of course! Well, four gaskets and a couple of spacers, and who knows what else, fell off before I could see where they went.
I messed around with it, wiped it off some, then tried to reassemble. As I said, I had no idea of how to put it back together. Finally after sorting pieces back and forth, to and fro, and almost losing my patients(not me), I got it together again. I pulled, and pulled. Nothing! I pulled and pulled again, got a little sputter, pulled some more and I'm sorry, I had to laugh, it started!
I finished my yard, did one of the neighbors, then shut it off to refuel. The whole time thinking, don't shut it off, it won't start again.
IT STARTED! And with no problem, on the first pull. I finished the third yard with out a hitch. I don't believe it, but I'm not going to knock it, it worked!
Long story short, I mowed three yards today, lol!
Who say's you have to know what you are doing, sometimes just trying is good enough! If you don't try, you will never know what you can accomplish.
Have a great day, Partner! |
