got a 1992 gt 262 john deere . was mowing and stopped mower for a break. when I tried to restart it just turned over great but would not start. oil level was low so I topped it off. replaced fuel filter and it only got about a 1/8 in of gas in the filter. stumped!

Some mowers have vented caps that get plugged up and form a vacuum. try starting with the cap off. Check pump out put, check for sticking carb float...clean it if needed.
