Hi Mandy, sorry to hear about your issue. This is actually the same issue I had with just about every small engine I own this Spring, with an increase in the amount of ethanol in our fuel it causes havoc on small engine carbs. You will have to remove the entire carb and clean it. Remember if its brass in a carb its a jet and fuel needs to pass through it. If you do not want to go through the mechanics of this? Then a brand new carb is about $15. Its up to you but at least search utube for "TG24 carb cleaning " you will see its not that difficult and remember to always run your small engines completely out of gas before you store them for the winter...... Good Luck!!
