fuel issue
I have a stalling problem with my 272. Seems once you are really using it in the cold (i.e.) plowing snow or wide open down the road, it seems to run out of fuel. I changed the fuel filter under the seat and noticed there is also one between the pump and carb and is not shown in the manual.
After changing the filter under the seat I noticed there isn't much fuel in this transparent filter after running it. WOT down the road ran ok and didn't fall off but it wasn't below 30 degrees. Seems I might need a fuel pump to me but don't know much about these engines and how to tune them for the weather. |

Re: fuel issue
The upper (pump to carb) fuel filter won't fill up completely right away,
and over time it may just fill up 3/4's... It's normal and nothing to worry about! |

Re: fuel issue
don't forget to clean the little screen on the fuel pump. It wont pump when its full of dust.

Re: fuel issue
Just an update. I pulled the fuel pump and disassembled it. Looked clean as a whistle. I then put it back on and left the feed end open and hit the key. Fuel really squirted out and also filled the fuel filter. I then took off the second filter and put a new hose from the pump to carb. Seems better and a couple of full throttle runs down the road in the cold it doesn't fall off.
