I have a lawnflite Pro 21" Honda powered used from new past 2+ years never missed a beat. Today pulled starter cord but barely turn the engine over:confused1: Ant ideas

 

I used to get this on my honda powered hayter condors now and again. Reason: i left the petrol on when not using them for a couple of days, simply take the spark plug out,turn it over a few times, replace plug and off you go, and remember to turn the petrol off at the end of the day.

Yes - possibly the needle valve in the carb is seeping fuel in to the engine!

Sounds like the fuel cock was left open. Check to see if this was the case if so close the fuel cock. You will now need to drain the crank case completely of oil/gas mix refill with fresh oil. fill fuel tank open fuel cock and it should pull. Honda is well noted for this and you only need to have it happen once or twice to learn. I hope this helps. Have a nice weekend.
