Just recently my mower has decided it wants to lose power. At first I thought it was because the grass was kind of long and I was going up hill.
Then today while mowing it started to sputter and would continue even when I disengaged the blade and was stopped on flat land. It did continue to run when I put the throttle down to idle but when trying to put it back to full speed it would start cutting out again. I shut it off and blew out the art filter and I thought that helped, but then it started doing it again. Then I shut it down and let it sit for a couple of hours and it fired back up and ran fine for about 20 mins. Then it did it again and this time died even at low idle. I let it sit for another couple of hours and it started right back up????
Please help and give me some idea's. I really need this mower to last for a couple of more seasons without any costly repairs as I really don't have a new mower in the budget right now.
Lastly I have had the mower for about 13 years (got it new) and I will admit I have not kept up on maintenance like I should.
