Outdoor Power Equipment (Lawn Mowers, Snow Blowers, Chain Saws and more) Discussions

I have a Toro Model 20005 with a Tecumseh engine.  It only start after pumping the primer about 5 times.  Then stops after the after a very short run, like no more gas is getting to the carbureator.  It does not have a fuel filter, the fuel line is not clogged. New Air filter, spark plug, and fresh oil. I have also cleaned out the carbureator with STP Carbureator cleaner.  Any suggestions? Thanks for your help

You must still have something in the carb.  I beleive that the carb bowl bolt on that modle is also the main jet.  Try taking off the bolt / jet and draining the bowl look for water or garbage.  There should be a hole on the shaft drilled straight through,  there should also be a metered hole drilled from the center of the threaded end to make a "T" of the holes, all those passages must be cleared.

Try this, good luck.
