Problem is the mower wants to quit running after cutting for a while, acts like it is running out of gas. Stops then and starts right back up, and then in a little while does the same thing again. Filter seems to have gas in it when it stops. I noticed that there is a small leak occuring around the oil seal on the block behind the PTO, could this be causing the pto to get hung up and bog down the engine acting like it's running out of gas. I do not seem to have this problem when just running the mower with out the deck engaged. One other thing would be is it normal to have air blowing or sucking on the valve cover that has the oil fill cap when you take it off. Any help here.
