Neal, If lawn mower does not start after running out of gas, change fuel filter if equipped, chances are the carburetor has gotten clogged with sediment/dirt from bottom of tank. Remove carb. and disassemble, clean/rebuild. Check the attached links,instruction and guides, Good luck

Swisher 60" pull behind mower with 14.5 briggs engine. good spark and the starter will crank just fine. If I prime the carb with a little gas it will start imediately but wont continue. Any ideas..

Hi Andy, the carby will need to be removed and all jets cleaned out with compressed air. Basically its not getting enough fuel through the carby to keep running. Regards Phil.

Lawn mower cranck but wont start...

Since you already checked for spark and air I would drain all the fuel out of it and check that fuel for water. Over time some lawn mowers end up with contaminated fuel. You can see the water sitting on the bottom of the fuel if you let it stand for a bit in a small plastic bowl.

Be sure to empty and dry out you fuel can as well. Especially if the mower stopped running right after a refuel. Which is a good sign your gas can is contaminated too.
