[QUOTE="MrSimon, post: 261913, member: 5461"] I would check the following: 1. Is the gas fresh? 2. Is the fuel hose in good condition? 3. Are the spark plugs clean and gaped properly? 4. Is the fuel filter/screen clean? 5. Do you have the right fuel/oil mixture? 6. Are the spark plug wires clean and in good shape? Once you do all those easy things, then its time to start thinking about cleaning/re-building the carburetor and or fuel pump. The new tank could have had some small pieces of plastic, dirt, or whatever in it that got sucked into your carb and clogged it. [/QUOTE]
