I just put my motor back together last night after breaking the conecting rod. I got the truck back together and took it for a easy test drive around my lawn it ran good for about 5 minitues then stalled. It wouldnt restart so I checked and replaced the glow plug. It ran fine for less than a minute. Now it only runs for about 15 seconds before stalling it will however idle if I keep the easy start pluged into the top. Does anyone know whats wrong? thanks

idk......maybe tuning but i doubt it....maybe a little more info if possible on anything....sounds or whatever u can think of

It acts like it flooding but my settings are lean

had the same problem with mine, it was the glow plug. i know you repaced it the first time but replace it again.

It turns out I had the pistion in backwards. If anybody else has problems make sure the "notch" on the piston skirt faces the carburetor not the easy start.

hahaha that sucks. so the piston was hitting the crank at the bottom of the stroke? i put my motor back together once and went to turn the flywheel with my hand and it wouldnt go all the way done. i found i put my piston in backwards so dont feel bad

i hope you didnt mess anything up while trying to start it with the piston backwards

probably your piston is in a wrong way, check the manual and do it again.
