Filled with fresh gas and gave it a few pulls on the starter rope, and it began to start, on about 5 pull it started and ran fine for about 10 seconds then died. Almost sounds like it was starved for gas. Ab 'YES' the gas valve was in the 'ON' position.
I couldn't restart after that. At my wits end....
Thoughts ?

Why don’t you just bring it to a small engine repair shop? You probably would have saved money at this point…
