commodore B20 mower
<p>Hi, new to this so excuse me. My B20 mower will not start. It has an unusual carberettor (not seen one like this before.) The petrol tank is situated below it and would like some info on what to look for. The mower was in use and ran ok 3 months ago,but now nothing. I have checked and cleaned the spark plug but it seems not to be getting any petrol. can anyone give me any helping advice as to what is wrong.</p>

Over time this tank dries out and you have to pull quite a few times before it fills again, or fill the tank brim full, or pour a little down the intake.
A bigger picture next time please.

Are you sure it is a Commodore B20 ?
The engine sounds like a Briggs & Stratton and it wasn't fitted to a B20 as standard, any chance of a few pictures to confirm just what you have.
