I've never really worked on motors before but I do know a little. I bought this motor last week advertiser said it starts but won't run which it does using starter fluid. At best ran 5 seconds then died impellor was working. It looks like this guy has gone through the whole thing new spark plugs wires gaskets everything looks great do you guys have any simple fixes I should try or take to shop Thx.

If it runs on starting fluid (not a good idea as it has zero lubrication) but does not run otherwise it is more than likely the carburetor. disassemble and clean as necessary.
