Put new carb and it ran fine. went to use n fuel tank was empty,discovered leaking fuel lines. replaced but will not start
Try reversing fuel lines. They may be connected to the wrong ports.
SOURCE: Tiller won't start
You may need to perform a rebuild or possibly a good cleaning on the carb. any questions on it feel free to ask
SOURCE: tiller wont get fuel to start
Try disconnecting the line at the carb. Then carefully blow back to the tank. It may have something blocking the outet from the tank. If that doesn't do the trick, the float may be stuck and not allowing the needle to open for fuel to enter the carb bowl. Good luck...Lee

It sounds as if you still have Carburetor problems.
Use
a Den Tek Brush, (http://www.drugstore.com/products/prod.asp?pid=165357&catid=1152), to
clean the small portals in carb. These portals can become blocked.
(If there is a small screen in the Carb., this can get blocked too.
Make sure that it is clean as well.)
Reassemble and start. (If there is a small screen in the Carb., this can get blocked too. Make sure that it is clean as well.)
If the carb. parts are more than 4 years
old, you may have to replace them.
If you need further assistance
on:
1. Fuel line replacement or
2. Carburetor kit replacement
Just
let me know.

I needs to be cleaned!! It's clogged up in there with old varnished fuel..Clean thoroughly!!!! Good Luck...
First off it's the ethenal in the fuel that caused your problem, there is an additive you mix with the full to prevent the deterioration of the parts, yes you can also fix it, drain the fuel, check inside the tank for a filter if it is still there, flush tank clean & dry get a replacement hose from hobby shop airplane fuel line, glue it in with a new filter using SEAL-ALL GAS & oil resistant one of your large hardware stores carry's it and the fuel mixture.
