No satisfaction from the dealer, so I dug into it myself. Glad I did.
Found an inline filter/magnet. Replaced that unit (although it is cleanable, I thought I'd replace it for peace of mind. Cost: $35 shipped).
Then, took off carb. Underneath the diaphragm on the top, there was quite a bit of oil. I sprayed the orifices out with carb cleaner till the fluid came out clear and reassembled/installed.
One connection on the fuel line seemed loose. It had on of those crimp type clamps on it. I cut off the end of the fuel line and reinstalled it with two conventional screw type clamps. I think this connection may have been sucking air.
It fired up almost instantly. I m one "happy camper" (pun intended)
