Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Engine starts and then dies, select start, engine model

Question
I have a Toro 4 cycle engine (model # 20016(LV195EA) that I bought a little over 2 years ago - I changed the spark plug and air filter recently but it has been sitting since last year - I took it out today and it started right up - mowed half of my lawn and then it died - When I try to restart it, it starts right up and then 2 seconds later it dies again - Any help in figuring out what the problem might be would be great - thanks

Hello David:

From your Description it Sounds like the Carburetor has Picked up Trash in the Jet. Remove, Disassemble and Soak the Carburetor Overnight in Carburetor Cleaner. Then Blow Out the Passages with Compressed Air. Install New Kit. You should be Able to Locate a Breakdown/IPL of the Mower at this Site Addy, https://lookup3.toro.com/partdex/default.cfm and Select Start Parts Viewer. Then Enter the Model Numbers. Hope this helps. I am here if you Require more Assistance. Let me know what Happens, Please. Thanks.

Good Luck
