Ariens hard starting when warm
Original Message Oct 28, 2013 10:57 am

Hi,

I have an Ariens ST27LE with the briggs 1350 305 engine. I am having an odd starting issue. The engine will start on the first pull (after priming and setting the choke) with no problem when the engine is cold. If I have to stop for any reason and re-start the engine it takes 3-5 pulls and fiddling with the choke to get it to re-start when the engine is warm. Spark plug is only a year old. It has been doing this for the past two years and it is really getting annoying. We have the same ariens at work and it always starts right back up. Any ideas?
