We've run it for the last two weeks with no problem. Went to start it and it will run for a few seconds, then shut down, and gave me a fault code of 36. The carb is flooding badly. I check the fuel pump, fuel filter, change the plugs, pull the carb down, clean it (didn't find anything wrong) and it does the same thing. Any Ideas?

Update: There was a small hole in the float of the carb (I missed it on my inspection). It had fuel in it and wouldn't allow the float to rise and shut off the fuel. Only cost me $142.18 to find that out.The mech could have ripped me for a lot more. Problem fixed for now.
