Hey Everyone, Just wondered if I could get a little advice on getting my Mantis tiller to run properly. I can get it started, but when I go to use it there is no power. So far, I have: -removed old gas, replaced with new 50:1 -removed plug, cleaned and checked gap -sprayed carb cleaner in carb, kept it throttled up -adjusted carb screws as described in manual I am just frustrated with this thing. It was an old one I bought used and it worked well first couple of years. Now I can't do anything with it except exercise my pulling arm trying to get it started. Let me know if anyone can help before I send to the garage sale. Thanks, Tim, Ohio
