Motor on the Exmark mower I have is not running well.
I took the carb out completely and ran compressed air through everything. Took out the needles, blew out all the passages, and now the engine surges, a LOT.
I've purged all the fuel and put in new, replaced the air filter, and put in two new spark plugs.
It definitely does not run well enough to mow, but I am unsure what else to try here. Under load it dies straight away, without load in only runs while choked. I may just take it somewhere to have it inspected, but figured I'd ask here.
I assume it is a carb problem, but aside from cleaning it up, not sure what else to do.
