Questions

Is every no-start problem the carburetor?

Fuel is common, but spark, compression, safety switches, and starting systems can also be involved.

Can old fuel cause repeat problems?

Yes. Old gasoline can leave deposits and clog small passages again if the tank and fuel supply are not addressed.
