Answer
I had this same problem with a snow blower and know exactly what you are going through. The carborator needs to be cleaned. It has "gunk" in it that keeps the carborator from mixing the gas and air properly. Take it apart and wipe it down with acetone to get all the gunk out of it and you should be good to go. For me, I kept the gas in my snow blower all summer long and it got gunked up from sitting. I thought it was just hard to get started, so I got some starter fluid and sprayed that into the carbourator and it would start right up but only run for about 5 seconds (until the starting fluid burned off) and then stall. Sound familiar? During the winter, either run your mower dry or put gas stabilizer in it so it doesn't gunk up.

Do you use regular gas for the lawn mower?

I got a used lawn mower and I'm not sure what type of gas to put in it.


Answer
some push mowers such as LAWN BOY use mixed gas as they are 2-stroke engines but 99% of all other mowers use regular unleaded
