To the mods: if this belongs in the "off topic" forum feel free to move it. I feel as though it is at least tangentially related to chainsaws/the motor aspect and would like some engine oriented minds to see it.
I have an engine like this on a 5hp little wonder blower. It doesn't have the gokart exhaust but you get the idea
In past seasons it's started with a few pulls on choke regardless of how long it sits. It's gotten to the point that it is very hard, if not impossible to start without starting fluid. If I take the air filter out, and spray for like 20 seconds, it starts and turns over and runs very strong like it always has.
What am I looking at here? A carb kit? If it does run just fine I assume it cannot be the plug...unless could the plug be sparking weak at this point?
Let me know what you think..
