I don't seem to need any parts yet. When I got back to working on it, I
cleaned and checked the plug and drained the carb bowl and that got it
going. Probably a bit of water in the fuel, not much of a surprise given
all the rain and humidity lately and the mower having been parked under
cover but where it got some sun during the day causing thermal cycling.
