Could be as simple as bad gas. Gas today does what is referred to as 'phase seperation' where the alcohol drops out of the gasoline and gums up the works. Depending on where he lives, he could have picked up some +10 percent e-gas, which is death to a small air cooled engine as well.
No small engine built today can stand alcohol concentrations in the excess of 10% and prefer actually, non e-gas, which I can and do purchase here in Michigan but some states have none.
I always recommend Marine (blue) stabil in every gas can, every time.
