Sounds like fun...NOT! I need to figure out why my lawn tractor will only backfire out the exhaust, and wont' start. Ran fine for my stepson on the back yard. When he went to start it after emptying the bag, would only backfire, wouldn't start.

Ohv b&s?

If so, the valves need adjusting, or this crappy gas has the jet gummed shut.
I had to put a kit in the log splitter's carb this year, it was a new motor last year, but te jets were gummed solid.

you need to run the marine version of sta-bul in everything

Turns out the broken spark plug, and coolant leak was really a bad head gasket like I thought.

Rob can fly in and make the repair for me!!!
You must be desperate for help if you need me to do anything mechanical Charlie...
