Lawn Mower problem . . .

Seems I was using my lawnmower to slice and dice the
leaves, and stuff them into the catcher bag.

Worked very well. Till my lawnmower quit.

It's like it starts up when I pull the rope . . .
runs for about a second then dies again.

I tried replacing the air filter and the spark plug
and I added some stuff to the gas that is supposed
to help clean the carburetor, remove any water, etc. etc.

No help.

I also found it was low on oil, so I added enough to get it up on the stick. Still won't keep running.

Any suggestions?
(Other than time to buy a new mower - come spring when the grass starts growing again.)

Zim.
