Cant figure this issue out. My trusty MTD 42" rider starts up just fine. I can run it for maybe 30 minutes until it starts the following ritual. Hit tall grass and it stars dying.
I dissengage the deck and it will come back to life. This process repeats over and over. Its like its getting hot and vapor locking. Sometimes I will open the hood and the gas tank will be blowing up like a balloon as if some vent is plugged. I remove the fuel cap and it will be fine for awhile.
Still cuts great. Fresh blades, fresh fuel lines. Havent changed the plug but seems odd that would be it.
