Mower stalls going up hills

check and see if the fuel line pickup in the tank rotted off.

Gravity tank. Hole is in the bottom of the tank. Thanks for the suggestion though. Got a new fuel filte, air filter and spark plug. Just waiting on the pre filter for the air filter. Will let everyone know how it turns out.
 
Quick update. Replaced the air filter, spark plug and fuel filter (75 micron) and all seems to be well. If I were a betting man I would say it was the 75 micron fuel filter that did the trick. I have only mowed the lawn once since the change but it went off without a hitch. Keep your fingers crossed for an uneventful summer. :laughing:
 
Rip off the silly little fuel filter that the mower comes with and Install the Biggest $2.98 Clear Plastic Filter that walmart sells.

Replace every springtime after the mower sits all winter and the fuel gets all Gummy in the old filter.

Hint: Drain all the gas before "Winterizing" Change the oil and Grease everything. Twice! Try to keep mice out of the mower by hanging a sock or two full of mothballs around the electrics and engine.
