GX345
Greetings!
I have a GX345 that is normally very reliable and starts right up, even after long periods of sitting. This winter it has become very difficult to start. It will crank with no sign of starting at all, then I'll smell gas and know it has flooded. After letting it sit for 10-20min I'll turn the key and it will fire up instantly. Sometimes it will continue to run at this point but on a few occassions I have let it sit idling and it will idle smoothly for a few minutes then stop running-not slowly die, stop STOP, Then its back to not starting, flooding, sitting then starting. Once its running for a few minutes its fine. I have replaced the plugs and ignition module.
Any suggestions?
