We have a John Deere J38 Push mower that has a Briggs motor in it... which has the auto choke or whatever its called on it and no ball to prime it.
Last week I mowed the entire back yard just fine, but did notice smoking when I first started the mower. I have had that in the past, and it always stops smoking shortly after. I think because the oil was filled a little higher than it should be. Although it smoked more than usual that day.
By the time I got to the front yard it just quit running. Whenever I tried to restart it, all I would get is one backfire and it wouldn't even try to run.
So I ended up replacing the spark plug, changed the filter, replaced the gasoline with fresh gas. It still would only backfire on the first pull and not start.
So then I replaced the entire carburetor and changed the oil. I had the exact same problem again with the one backfire. Then I tried adding a little gas inside the spark plug and now it won't even backfire, it just rotates not trying to start. Its very hard getting gas into the small hole though.
Does anyone have any idea of what I should be looking at? I wouldn't even be doing all this if the repair shops around here didn't take over a month to get the mower back. One shop even stopped accepting more work.
