ok it works but y do it leak from the air filter??

[pafoofnic]

@savagebfblack5 The needle and seat could be leaking or the float may be leaky. Remove the float and shake it to see if gas is inside, if so it will need to be replaced. Good Luck!

Great, thanks. Similar problem on my Craftsman. After calling and being presented a quote of at least $60 I watched your video. It took me 15 minutes to get it running again after your clear instruction. I didn't have the funky fuel line plug you used in part 1 though which made my job significantly messier. How much are those fuel line plugs? Thanks again.

@prakashmanley I used to use a pencil...pretty cheap to plug the fuel line temporarily

I bought a mower used and the fuel float was stuck. When I put it back together, it wouldn't start. After replacing the parts in the little bag shown in this video, it still wouldn't start. I tried what ideastoday did, and now my mower works like a charm. Kudos to pafoofnic for posting this video and helping those of us who know it can't be that difficult, but don't know where to start!

Thanks for the helps. I was lost on how to get the seat out and back in. Your video explained it perfectly. Thanks again.

Thanks for the help. My Craftsman mower would run about 2 seconds, then die. I removed the bolt on bottom and cleaned the holes with wire, and it now runs fine.

@ideastoday I'm glad the video was of help to you. Thanks for the comment.

@pafoofnic I had the same experience as ideastoday. Cleaned the bowl bolt pin hole, now it runs like a dream. Thanks for the great video!
