Help! I was driving my 560 to a local tractor show yesterday and it started running rough and finally just wouldn't run at more than an idle. It starts quickly and idles but won't take the gas. So now it's sitting on the side of the road 5 miles from home. :(
I tried drygas, no luck, and changed the cap and rotor (pretty corroded), no change. It runs better for a couple of minutes after it's been sitting a while. I loosened the fuel line at the carb, there's gas, looked in the tank with a bright flashlight, no obstruction or water. I pulled the bowl plug and gas came gushing out, then slowed to a smaller stream, not sure if that's normal. It ran a little better I think for a time after I did that, but not sure it isn't my imagination.
Any ideas what to do next? It would be nice to at least narrow it down to an electrical or gas issue.
