2001 Nissan 5hp, 4 cycle, ext. fuel tank.<br />Problem: Runs with choke pulled out. When pushed in slowly, engine dies. Have to recover by using throttle. Then very throttle sensitive( Just a little turn up on the throttle, Rpm goes up fast, then turn down throttle Rpm decreases fast and eng. dies. Eng was used with oil level a bit overserviced.<br />I replaced eng fuel filter, spark-plug, drained all fuel from lines and carb. Drained ext. fuel tank, adjusted oil level, Installed clear inline fuel filter in fuel tank-fuel line to check for dirt, water.Also found a bad check valve on primer bulb. R&R primer bulb but no help.<br />Maybe the fuel pump or carb?<br />Thx,<br />Thor

Re: Nissan 5hp repeat trouble

IMHO you should check your carburetor. Sounds like the low speed jet is blocked.
