    Riding mower runs for about 20 mins then stops

    I'll order the parts that I might need and use the one I need. What's wrong with having them ready on standby?? Return the other ones. Amazon Prime benefit.

    Riding mower runs for about 20 mins then stops

    I was trying to avoid doing that, but I know I really should do it. I looked inside the fuel tank, and it looked clean. I know.... I'm just being lazy. I really need to do it. The fuel pump and filter are pretty cheap so I figured I should go ahead and do that as well. I have a spare shut off...

    Thanks for all the input, fellas! I guess while I'm already changing the fuel filter and fuel pump, I might as well blow out the lines too.

    Riding mower runs for about 20 mins then stops

    Ok, so it's not the gas cap. I tried to cut the lawn today and sure enough, 15 mins into it, it started to sputter. I immediately open the gas cap and it made no difference. It still quit. I got my inline spark tester and I got sparks. But maybe by the time I got my tester from my garage and...

    It was built in 2016, according to the serial number. I'm not the original owner so I do not know the maintenance history.

    Thanks for your suggestion. I'm going to try the gas cap trick first. I'll add this as a possible cause if it's not the gas cap and/or the ignition coil.

    It's a Kohler 7000 series. Is this a good one?

    Awesome suggestion! I'll start with that gas cap. Easy enough to do. I did not realize gas caps go bad like that. If it is a bad gas cap, can I drill a tiny hole on it? I'm going to go ahead and buy a spark tester online. It's cheap enough and I'll probably need it at some point anyway. Thanks...

    Riding mower runs for about 20 mins then stops

    My Bad Boy MZ Magnum runs for about 20 mins then stops. It starts to sputter like it's running out of gas then quits. I have a full tank of gas in it. I'd let it sit for about 10 to 15 mins, start it again and the same thing happens. Runs for a bit then quits. Fuel pump? Fuel filter? Carb issue...
