I recently bought a used 6.0 Eager 1 Craftsman self propelled mower. It features "1 pull start" solid state ignition.

If I shut the mower off after running it awhile, it won't start again until it has cooled off-an hour or so.

It starts fine the first time if I prime it 7-10 times, and it runs good when it's running.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!
