Thanks for all the replies. I boiled the muffler in a dawn solution in a crock pot that use to boil carbs before I rebuild them. did not seem to help. I dried it in the oven (wife was gone) and I am able to blow thru it, I no longer think that is the problem. I mixed up a batch of fresh fuel with new gas and with 50:1 2 cycle oil, and used the starting procedure that 4play recommended. no help. I had drained the tank and used some of my existing 50;1 mix that I use in my weed eater and chain saw prior to the new batch I never could get the choke to stay open by itself and was using my foot to give it some throttle. That probably caused some of my flooding issues. While I had the carb off I could see that the wiring to the on/off switch was interfering with the linkage and I rerouted the wires. The choke works fine now. I took the carb off and checked the diaphragms. They both seemed soft and pliable. I think tomorrow or Monday I will check the key on the crank, Thanks for all the helpful suggestions I will let you know what happens.
