My 250 engine won't start in the morning. Every morning I have to pour a little gasoline in cab. to start. Once its starts it goes on all day without a problem starting . I change fuel filters and fuel pump but problem continue. I don't know much about motors so any help would be great. Jerry
it sounds like your excelerator pump is shot, letting the fuel bowl drain out, tomorrow morning before you start it, remove the air cleaner, look down the carb opening, and move the throttle linkage, and see if gas squirts down the bore.
if it hasnt been driven for the night, and if its cold, it could just be the choke. Thats what was wrong with mine for a while till it warmed up here.
even if the choke wasn't closing, and the excelerator pump was working, pumping it a few times would do the same thing as pouring a little gas into the carb. it would start, but without the choke closing you'd need to feather it for awhile till it warned up.
my acc. pump barely works but it runs fine once the choke got fixed, so getting the choke fixed seems like it should fix the problem.
