Hello Everyone, I enjoy reading the post here and the sharing of wisdom. I've come across a problem with my motor that has me confused. I replaced both coils, condensers, points, plugs, wires, carb float, carb kit. The engine starts and runs great for about 1/4 mile, then it dies and will not start. When I arrived back home, pull the rope, it cranks right up. It did this before all of the parts were changed and still does it. I am curious if I may be dealing with a vacuum leak that shows up after warm up? I did get it to start once, but it seemed to only want to run using the choke. Perhaps a seal or gasket leaking after the engine gets hot? Im puzzled with this one, any advice is appreciated!
