Either a stuck float or a bad seat for the needle valve. This doesn't make it a lemon. To make sure you fix the problem, rebuild the carburetor and be done with it

Thanks for the advice...

Another question...


When I pulled the drain plug gas came out....

Run off maybe or a leaky gas tank?

Could be a leaky gas tank, but since you said you had a hole in the primer bulb i would bet its a little residual from that leak. Take teh tank out and check it good to make sure its not from the tank.
