This last weedend my motor would start unless I pushed the "primer button" on the start/shift control, then it would star and run as long as the button was held in. It had run fine the last time out. Any help will be appreciated thanks.
 
the primer might be leaking air and sucking it into the bowl of the carb. I would start by rebuilding/replacing the primer assy.
 
Your carburetor is not supplying fuel from the idle circuit. This fuel is temporarily being replaced by pressurized fuel from the primer system. Once the primer induced fuel has exhausted itself the engine leans out and quits again unless you continue to use the primer. A carb cleaning will be needed at this point.
