Liliana Wells on Dec 05, 2014My husband also goes on Google to pose the same question you posted here. There might be other people having the same problem with the same model and how they fixed it. He is technically minded and has repaired many things using this method before. We love HomeTalk; but you know the saying "Google is your best friend". LOLHelpful Reply

Robert Snow on Dec 05, 2014Carburetor float stuck or needle and seat stuck . Carb kit from local parts store with a little carb cleaner should do the trick . Just an idea from a parts man for over 30 years . Good luck !!Helpful Reply

Dee Ann Gruenewald on Dec 07, 2014I'm glad that you noticed this problem, our lawn tractor blew up and started a grass fire in the foot hills where our property is. It was a fast burning fire and burnt almost two acres. We were fined $8000.00 for mowing at the wrong time of the day. Very costly for our ignorance. Good luck!!!Helpful Reply
