Need some advice, I run a Craftsman 5000 and after mowing an hour or more the engine start to stall and act likes it's going to die & will eventually. I pulled off the air cleaner and the choke was stuck shut and the choke cable was pushed back out of the dash. I had to force the choke plate open with my finger and drove it to the shop. I've just changed oil, filter, fuel filter, new carb, new fuel pump and all new fuel lines. This was done 3 mos. ago as it had been sitting foe several years so I didn't want to mess around so replaced all fuel and oil related parts. Also verified the gas cap is ok. This problem has happened twice now and I stumped. When runs, it runs great, just after an hour or so it's choke slams shuts and quits, un stick choke and she runs fine. Thanks in advance.
