Hello
I just bought a used gator with 700 hrs showing on the meter. I think most of the hours are from the key being left on.
Issue is it ran great the first week and then it just went down hill. Now I can start it, but after a few seconds it just dies. Also as soon as I try to accelerate it also dies. i have to start baby choke and after about 20 starts I can get it to go. Once warmed up it seems to run, but still only ideals for a minute then dies. I checked all the hoses for vacuum leaks, took carb off and gave it a good cleaning, checked to make sure fuel pump was pumping,put new fuel filter in, put new plug in and still same problems. Any one else experiencing same issue or have a fix
Thank you

See you gave the carb a good cleaning..but to me it is just what our Gator did due to ethanol gas and required some work to the carb I think with some parts replacement. Well bill was about $150 maybe a little more. ....
