I have a troy bilt self propelled walk behind mower with a Briggs & Stratton 6 hp engine. This engine has the by now infamous plastic carb and it wants to stall out after each 15-20 minutes of use.
I can pull the air filter off and choke it using a finger to keep it running. It misfires like crazy, Sometimes it will smooth back out and I can use it for another few minutes, sometimes it just will not keep running.
I need some advice on what could be the cause of this unusual behavior and what to do to stop it. The mower is 2 years old, the carb drained and fresh gas filled.
I am stumped. Help!
