hi all I just inherited a jd 180. its been sitting for a few years so I brought it home
so far new oil an filter new fuel pump filter an lines air filter
heres the problem
it will only start when I pour fuel directly in the carb but as soon as that fuel is spent it shuts off it doesn't seem to be pulling fuel from the tank?
I removed the fuel filter applied vacuum to the line an fuel came out, I attached the filter an did the same the filter filled with fuel.
I hand filled the line from the carb to the pump thinking maybe you have to prime the pump?? still no go any ideas tips anything
thanks
dave
