Here’s a little background. I bought this mower on 4/29/2021. It’s powered by a Yamaha MX800V. It currently has 59.4 hours on it. This is the carbureted engine.
It gives a good cut. The problem is with engine performance. I didn’t want to do anything other than routine maintenance to it while under warranty. I’m not going to waste my time trying to diagnose it. I have replaced the fuel filter twice. The problem seems to be a fuel delivery issue. I can be cutting at full throttle and hit a bump and it will cut out. Then it will catch back up. It will do the same thing if I turn hard in either direction. This happens on both fuel tanks.
The dealer can try and fix it. I really don’t have a lot of confidence that it can or will be fixed. Yamaha is just too new to this game
