That's a good one Norm, if he took it to a mower shop, they would have said it was the spark plug, carby diaphragm, fuel lines and emptied his wallet pretty quickly
Months ago, a neighbour 3 doors down was having problems with his old Shingu line trimmer with a robin 2 stroke engine on it - full throttle, 20 pulls on or off choke made no difference, would not start.
I tried choke with no throttle, and it started (and still starts) first pull
That look was priceless as well
I was shocked too
