OK, so what's going on here Forum folks, has me stumped?

Check your oil level before you go on. Takes just a few seconds. If it was locked up you might have pure gas making its way into the crankcase and combustion chamber, or water getting past the air filter if its stored outside.
But we have not had much rain so I doubt that is a problem
If the oil level is (high / above normal) then you might have a problem with the carburetor float. (I've had this problem once myself on a garden tractor)
Well at least you know it starts.
Did it smoke a lot when you got it started?
