Got a OHV Briggs and Stratton: 219700-0300-e1 with a Nikki carb. It wouldn't start at the beging of season so I rebuilt the starter. Then the carb was flooding the engine, so I installed a shut off in the fuel line and made a mental note for a new inlet needle in the carb. Still wouldn't start and I finally realized that it was the valves out of adjustment. I fixed that yesterday and installed the new inlet needle. It still won't start. Grr! I have spark but I am going to put a new plug in cuase the spark looked weak. However, every time I tried to start it, the plug is wet with fuel. I can't imagine that being normal.
