Question
My 20hp b&s was running fine until I ran out of gas and couldn't get it to fire after filling..I put clean fuel filter in and blew out the line from filter to tank..still no fire??  help please, my grass is about ankle deep..

Answer
Hello John:

Sorry for the Delay. This Question was Located in the Question Pool. Send me the Model Numbers Off the Engine, Please. With these I can Locate the Proper Manual and Better Assist you. The Carburetor May have Picked Up Trash and the Carburetor Jets are Now Clogged. Is the Gas Up to the Fuel Pump and Carburetor Inlet? Sometimes the Fuel System has to be Primed. Hope this Helps. I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Let me Know What Happens, Please. Thanks.

Good Luck

Respectfully

John
