Craftsman 37700 150cc 21" Front Wheel Drive Push Self Propelled Mower with no primer took 6 pulls to start then once started it surges like rearrrrrrr rearrrrrrr rearrrrrrr the whole time running.

This we call hunting, it is due to a fuel blockage in the carb, it needs the carb and jets cleaning, if you are ok on the spanners, remove the carb from the engine, remove the screw in the float bowl and remove the bowel, the main jet and emulsion tube are screwed up inside the carb, remove and clean, you can purchase jet cleaning wires which will sort out the cleaning, you can also use carb cleaner.

I have a new 650 sears craftsman self propelled 22" lawnmower that will not start. I have gone through the prime bulb instructions, still no luck.\r\nAny ideas? Walter in Alberta Canada.

could be the priming bulb gasket between the air-filter assy. and the carb.
I have the same lawnmower and if I prime with gas from a can it will start but stop after a few seconds. When I push the bulb I can hear air leaking in this area. You can replace the gasket by removing the back half of the air-filter assembly. I am looking to buy a gasket today I let you know how it works out! Thanks Ron

ENGINE KEEP'S DIEING, PUSH PRIMER BULB AND STARS, BUT THEN DIES, IF I CONTINUE TO PUSH PRIMER BULB IT KEEPS RUNNING, BUT STOPS AS SOON AS STOP.TROY-BILT SELF PROPELLED MOWER MODEL E189- BRIGGS&...

Carburator issue. If you have some mechanical abilty you can pull the carb off else take it to a shop. You probably left gas in it off season. Either the main jet is clogged or the float valve is stuck. Either way, remove the carb, tae off the bottom cover and clean everything out with gum out or a carb cleaner. reassemble and eveything should be fine.

Starts but when chock goes off stops running Honda engine Yardman self propelled mower

OK take and check this. A lot of the honda engines,especially push mowers,tillers and pressure washers,they put a type of coating inside the gas tank. The bad thing about this type of coating is it has a tendency to peal and wash into the carb. I would look inside the tank to see if there is any debris. I would also clamp off the fuel line and take out the bolt that holds the fuel bowl on and catch the fuel that drains out in a clean tray. If it looks dirty,pull the carb and clean it,it should fix it.
