[QUOTE="Fishfiles, post: 6496, member: 782"] The fuel pick up tube is originally out of soft plastic tubing and had a screen on the end of it , the screen may be clogged up , the tube will crack and or break off and fall into the tank , sometimes if the tank is full it wil run fine till the fuel level gets to the crack or break , also sometimes the original tube was replaced with the upgraded hard plastic pick up tube but the old tube is still in the tank and it deteriorates and little pieces of the old tube get stuck in the 90 degree fitting coming out the tank on the fuel pick up tube , the replacement for the tube doen't use the screen , and on that model machine it is pretty hard to get it out and back in , to test if the fuel pick up is your problem you can take a gallon jug of diesel and tie wire it to the engine , put a hose from fuel can to the primer ball , prime and start engine and see if it solves the problem [/QUOTE]
