Not sure what part of the number above is needed. This is a Craftsman Leaf Vac with a 6HP motor. Issue is it won’t stay running. There is fuel in the bowl and as long as I can shoot a little fuel in carb it runs but it won’t stay running. I cleaned the bowl out as it had set for a while it was pretty good just slight varnish. The man who owned it maintains his stuff so no fuel left in after done using it. I installed new spark plug there is a strong spark and I replaced air filter. At a loss as to what is the issue. I can work on these if needed but diagnosis is not my strong point. I always disassemble motors and do a full maintenance and replace all items with new. Did that with this one but no luck getting it going. Any help is appreciated.

Hi Tim, thank you for reaching out. According to our research, the most likely cause of this issue is a dirty or clogged carburetor, which may need to be cleaned. If the carburetor is faulty, you may need to replace the carburetor overhaul kit, part number PS8984098. Please submit a new question if you have any follow-ups!
I found the model number of the Briggs & Stratton engine on the inside of the engine housing. Ordered a new starter-rewind unit, as the old cord broke and the thing was well worn. The instructions were clear enough, but to get the old starter off I had to drill out four rivets, which just spin around when you try. I used a hacksaw, chisel, pliers, whatever worked on each rivet; this took a while. When they were finally removed, the new starter pull unit was relatively easy to install with the small nuts and bolts provided. On the Yard Machines log splitter, putting back the engine housing is quite tricky; you have to jostle the thing into place, get the pull handle above the cover and line up the bolt holes.
Total disassemble, clean out water and any rust. hone cylinder, wire brush where needed,reassemble with new rings,gaskets and seals and lucas oil product. Started on second pull. Mowed lawn. If you have never done this sort of work before, probably should not attempt.
Inspected/removed fuel lines and found signs of leak. Removed and inspected carburetor and found that seals and gaskets were toast. Replaced said seals with ones from the kit that fit and replaced fuel lines.
Would be nice to have a fuel line kit with the big fuel line (tank to carb) and the little one (carb to engine) together with all the necessary clamps.
