Hi Bob, you`re supposed to rebuild the carb about every half zillion years or so, LOL. There is a fuel pump of sorts and its in the carb. Checked what`s called the impulse line that transfers engine vacuum from the crankcase to this diaphragm which pumps gas into the carb. Now is a good time to check your fuel hose for cracks and collapse. Also carefully disassemble the carb noting the postions of all components, then blast all the orifices with carb cleaner and compressed air. Put a new carb kit in, adjust your screws out 1 turn from lightly seated, and fire it up. Now fine tune the carb. Oh yeah, don`t forget fresh gas. Don`t forget to check for a nice blue spark also. If it still doesn`t run with power after ruling out these other potential problems, pull the muffler and look through the cylinder exhaust port for scoring of the piston or stuck rings. Russ
