Mower is 16 years old, with 1150 hours of run time. This season it will run for 15-20 minutes just fine but then it acts like it is starving for fuel. If you let it sit for 1/2 an hour it will run normal till it starts starving again. Any ideas? Thanks Herb

With old mowers the usual culprit is debris plugging the outlet in the fuel tank causing the mower to slowly run out of fuel.

Thanks for the tip! I removed the fuel tube that goes into the gas tank. Blew it out and a small wad of ancient gras came out. working great now. Thanks again!
