Innkeeper, the fact that is starts and runs fairly well, then dies out in a minute or so tells me(John andJLE) also, that there is aan interrupted fuel supply. When it sits the trickle of fuel fills the carb and then it will start for you. Disconnect the line from tank to carb and see what kind of flow there is..a stream about what you could pee should be coming out, anything less identifies where to start. When you remove your sediment bowl there is a screen up in there under the gasket, there is a good chance it is plugged full, or the actualconnection into the gas tank is full of corruption. I advise that you may blow air into the tank but the ebb of fuel back to the hole carries all the plugging guck back in with it and instantly plugs it. The filter at the carb is most suspect. There should be a drain cock on the carb(my old dual fuel M has one)and I can always tell by opening it, a poor stream of fuel=blockage...Good luck getting it fired up, its not a serious problem, but aggravating....Mike in Exeter Ontario
