The fuse will normally be in the area of the battery. If under the hood. look around the area under the battery, sometimes will be clipped to the supports that hold the steering shaft. If the battery is under the seat then look under there. May be able to get to it from the area above the hitch or may have to remove the battery to get to it.
Managed to get the entire yard (1 acre) cut/leaves bagged, etc.
Changes: new spark plug (OEM), air filter, fuel filter. I think the biggest change was I washed it. It seemed to run really good then. :laughing: Just kidding. But it did seem to run well after a sip of Seafoam in one gallon of fresh fuel.
Mowing. Ran great for about 15 mins. Then, wham. Just shut right off. No sputtering, no attempting to continue combustion. It was as if the key was turned off, so I suspect that might be electrical. Sat for about 15 seconds, fired right up first try.
Moved to the front yard, it then began a surging at all engine speeds but low. Yet the surging seemed to go away for the most part when the blades were engaged.
Have not attempted to locate the fuse. But it could be loose/corroded. I'll take a gander at that on the morrow. Wife has more on the honey do list.
Appreciate your time! I'm familiar with antique engines, namely Triumph motorcycles. But small engines are sometimes challenging.
