Hi,
I have a Mac 3214. It would start if I didn't use the choke, or prime it, but once it stopped, I had to wait at least 20 minutes before it would start again. I tried to adjust the carb, and now it doesn't start at all. Any idea what the problem is? What should I adjuct the L & H carb screws to? I tried 1 1/2 turns out for both, but that didn't work.

Thanks you!

Replace fuel filter in tank first.

Did you leave fuel in it while it was not being used for a long period of time?

pmust,
Try removing the fuel and get fresh fuel from the garage. Then see if it will start by putting some fresh fuel down the spark plug hole.
