Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Engine stars then dies, tecumseh engine, varnish

Question
I have a Tecumseh engine, starts fine then dies, if I keep pushing primer blub the engine will keep running. Can you please help. Thanks Steve

Answer
It sounds to me that you have a varnish issue in the carb. Most likely it will be varnish build up in the bottom of the bowl around the main jet bowl nut.
You will need to pull the carb all apart, clean it real well and rebuild it.
This sound get you up and going.
