Hi all,

I have been given a Victa Pace with a B&S 375 motor on it. It starts first pull after priming and revs very high for 10-15 seconds before starting to fluctuate and eventually turns off.. I prime it again and off she goes again, same thing

What could be the possible causes for this?

any assistance would be great!

Ben

Sounds like a fuel blockage on the suction side. I've outlined the checking process for someone else this morning in this thread:
