Amt 626 used to start poorly and normally ran with 1/2-2/3 choke. Now it barely runs. Took the fuel pump apart to clean it out. Diaphram still solid but very stretched. A little trash. Went back together fine and will now start on occasion. After allowing it to sit for 30 minutes or so, I can get it to start and idle smooth for about 30 seconds then it shuts off abruptly. CANNOT get it re-started. Took the ignitor wire off and there was much moisture so I dried it off and she fired right up. 30 seconds later, off. Wait 30 minutes and repeat. Overall condition of gator is in poor condition but has done well for next to no maintenance for 20 years.
Time after time after 30 minutes I can crank it up and it'll purr like a kitten until I give it any gas at all. Then it abruptly shuts off and no amount of cranking will get it restarted. Carb issue??
