Yeah, the boss had one of those little Mantis garden tiller and two or three times a year he'd bring it in to work cus it wouldn't start. All I ever did was pull carb abpart and wash it out and she would start right up every time and run like a champ.
He'd take it home and let it sit for a coupleof months and dang thing wouldn't start.
I was told by a mechanic at the garden supply that the jets are so small in them that they clog when the fuel dries up in them, even after a few months.
