Hi all, first time poster and of course I come with problems:
I have a John Deere LA115 that I bought off of a buddy who was getting divorced and no longer needed it. It had 6 hours on it last fall when I bought it, but had been sitting for a year, and seemed to run fine. I finally got it out to mow this summer and it hesitates terribly and will shut itself down. I drained the gas that was in it and put in fresh fuel... the problem got a little better, but it still is week and will not mow more than a yard length at a time without stalling out. The problem is the worst when I am mowing along a slight slope with the right side of the mower on the downhill side. Any ideas on what is going on? thanks!
