What am I missing? I mowed 4 or 5 acres yesterday with my 53 super h. shut it down to go eat supper and when I came back out it would not start. It ran perfectly and I haven't had any real problems with it. Last night I checked the following: I have good spark at the plugs I pulled the carb and made sure all the port were clear It would crank fine but not start.
I gave up for the night and let it sit. I went out this morning and it started right up. So I warmed it up a pulled it in and checked the valves ( it was due anyway). I set them to .017 put it back together and took it for a test drive. Ran fine. Pulled it back into the shop and now it won't start again. I have good fuel flow. I have spark. I just set the valves. Sure seems like a " won't start when hot problem". What the heck am I missing? Thanks in advance for the help.
