Hi All, I've followed this forum for about a year now and i find it priceless what info can be found here. I've eventually stumbled across a mower that's got me beat so here i am hopefully tapping into the wealth of experience that lies therein.
Its a masport contractor with a 2 stroke briggs model:95722, type:0220-01, code:891006.
So here's the problem. Initially not starting mainly due to the fact that the choke was not engaging at full throttle, and it had one hell of a kickback also, although i got it started after spraying a small amount of starter fluid in the plug hole. The motor ran fine and restarts were not a problem after the motor was warm.
After adjusting the throttle cable i could not get it to restart, it fired on a few occassions but would not actually start, all the while that super intense kickback was ripping the starter cord out of my hand.
Now i'm guessing it might be a flywheel key causing the timing to be out. i will strip it down tomorrow to have a look but thought i'd get some ideas here first
