Mower runs only on choke then dies suddenly

Hi

i currently have a countax c600h with a honda gcv520/gcv530/gxv530 16hp engine. The carburettor has recently been rebuilt and all the fuel lines been changed, the fuel pump has been checked and works fine. However i can now only start the engine with the choke and keep it running with the choke, when i release it the engine dies. why would this happen? Is it not getting enough of something?

Any help would be much appreciated

Thanks

James

Make sure the gas cap is vented and operational otherwise it will starve out when a vacuum is formed in the tank. If it restarts in say ten minutes and then dies out again, this is your most likely issue.

hi

thanks for you help, i tested the fuel pump and the fuel is being chucked through the lines quick enough which suggests there is a vacuum is being created, however why would it run on choke and nothing else?

thanks

The choke feeds it more fuel and less air. I don't think you understand what I'm trying to say. Try this, unscrew the gas cap so it's not sealed and see if it will run without the choke.
