Countax mower

[caledonian bob]

I have a Countax K1850 mower with a Kawasaki engine. I went to start it Yesterday but it will only run with the choke out slightly or with my hand over the air intake. Fuel filter is OK but obviously not getting the fuel it needs. Any help would be welcome.

Kawasaki carbs are not a huge fan of ethanol in the petrol IME , had a pile in to get ultrasonic cleaned at the start of the season , remove the carb bowl and check for any sign of water , dirt ect possibly just a bit of grit in the main jet

"Bang on" with your diagnosis. Blew the main jet out and it is running like a dream:thumbup: Thanks
