Engine quits running after start

I have a honda pw with a B&S 6.5 Quantum engine and it will run for about 20 seconds and shut off. Initially it would run for a minute or two and shut off but that time keeps getting shorter and shorter. I have checked oil level and I am good...

What could cause this?

Humming after engine shuts off

I'm no Honda expert so I'm not sure if an 02 has a "key off" evap system. If it does that may be what you're hearing. A lot of newer cars will run evap tests while the vehicle is off. It basically pulls vacuum on the fuel tank with an electric motor to test the integrity of the evaporative emissions system and opens / closes vacuum switching valves.

Northstar PW shuts off hot if washer is moved. Honda engine

Being petrol driven, it may have a mercury kill switch which puts a ground on the ignition circuit stopping the engine if you move it. Perhaps for safety in case you overturn the unit somehow.

My 50 cc dirt bike is messed up will start but won't runbutabout 10 seconds the engine bogs up then shuts down

Hi and welcome to FixYa,

Initially, determine the quantity and quality of the fuel by loosening the drain screw and catching the fuel draining. Additionally, determine if there is spark right after "engine bogs up then shuts down".

The "quantity and quality of the fuel" would be indicative if the fuel is contaminated and/or if there is sufficient fuel in the carb's bowl to run the engine above 10 seconds. Checking for the presence / absence of spark after the engine quits would help you determine if it is an electrical problem or a fuel starvation issue.

Good luck and thank you for asking FixYa.

Engine Floods after brief start and run when cold -then shut off

Local mechanic determined engine was flooded and started it by holding throttle to the floor and cranking 5-7 seconds - then the engine sputtered to life. It has run perfectly before and since and I'm at a bit of loss to understand why this occurred this one time - so far. It's been driven now 5 days with no problems.
