    engine problems

    Im having problems with my M18 (18hp kohler). I got 6 hrs on it since its been rebuilt. It was running until yesterday. It started up fine, then i ran it for 20 minutes, so it was warmed up. i shut it down to put on its snow tracks then fired it up and ran it slow in the driveway (back and forth at an idle) to checkout the tracks. then it just stalled. i tried to start it but all it did was crank over. I pulled the chock and it would start up then stall. then it wouldn't start at all. i poured some gas down into the carb it would run for a few seconds. so i did that enough to get the machine in the garage for the night. i figured the fuel pump went since during the rebuild i had the carb cleaned and rebuilt, replaced the fuel filter, and had new gas with stablizer. then this morning i went to start the machine and carb was filling up with gas (flooding). i check the sparck plugs. the front plug was soaking wet with gas but the back one was bone dry? so now the its getting to much gas. I'm assuming there is something wrong with the fuel pump, i order one through NAPA but it won't be in until tuesday. has anyone seen this before?
