I started with the choke and idled till i needed to un choke it and it ran for about a second then died. i repeted the process and it died again not it wont start at all. going to chech this evening if i'm getting fire. what could it be? maybe carb clogged? help?

 Re: Won't Start???
Sounds like it's either low on alternator fluid, a bad intake bearing, a dirty carb jet, or just old gas. I'd start with the 3rd option.

Water in gas maybe, remember start with the basics before you dive in trying to replace your alternator fluid or intake bearings.
