Lawnmower starting issue

[Maddog]

Read this somewhere for hard starting engines. Ti[ the mower on it's side, tank side up. I tip for about 10-15 seconds, then down on alls heels. My tank doesn't leak doing this and it starts with 1 or 2 pulls. Just did it last week. Cleaned air filter, fresh gas, tip on side. 1 pull. I'm with others that it's not a problem with a warm engine. Evidently the tipping and gas runs into carburetor like a choke.

Not a good enough mechanic to explain why it works, it just does for me.

I will give it a whirl
