The hood is gone, so don't suggest checking lights for "dimming".

Briggs and Stratton Engine 12H802-2677B1 Engine on a lawnmower starts and runs. However, after about 45 minutes of running full speed, depending upon the outside temperature, it will die and not start until it is full cooled off.
I have;
• de-carbon the head and top of the piston
• buffed the rust & corrosion off of the armature / magneto and the flywheel; gapped & reinstalled
But it ran the same.
I suspect a weak armature / magneto because the engine is 24 years old.
Am I heading in...

As I age, I find it harder to lift a 5 gallon fuel can to refill my lawn tractors. Are there any clever solutions for getting the fuel from the can to the tank?
I use both gas and diesel, but probably not enough of either to justify bulk delivery to a larger on-site tank with a manual or electric pump.
Thanks ..read more

Ferris 48" Part No 5901740, B&S 23 Hp, Commercial Series, Model 44C777000 5 G1

The vibration started when mower in normal work. Nothing unusual happening.
I am concerned that, having checked all that I can think of, something internal may have come...

Good evening all.
I have a GCV530 in a HF2417.
Suffering from engine speed stability (huntung) issues.
So far I’ve set the valve clearances, changed oil, oil filter, air filter and fuel filter, changed the plugs, checked the spark is working, put a brand new Honda oem carb on it, changed the regulator spring, changed the fuel pump and prayed to the Lawn Mower Gods.
Nothing works!
It is definitely running lean, spark plugs are white, and it’ll run perfect if i partially block the inlet...

Good morning,
I bought a used 150 pro-walk-behind with the Kawi 12.5 hp engine. The machine was sold as needing a carb adjustment since it would have trouble cold starting. I negotiated a good deal and have been trying to fix my cold start issues.
I started by buying a new carb and following carb adjustments from the FSM and carb adjustments also in the FSM. The machine will only start with starting fluid but ran well and I even put 3 hours on it cutting lawns.
I thought to check valve...
