360 Sod (Donna Dixson) on Jun 23, 2012Have you checked the air filter? Or could be water in your gas, or if you bought gas from a station that carries gas with a high ethanol content it could be unhappy.Helpful Reply

Woodbridge Environmental Tiptophouse.com on Jun 23, 2012My bet its the fuel also. The new blends tend to soften the rubber fuel hoses and gaskets inside the carburetor and that can cause exactly what your experiencing with your machine. On that note, only purchase small quantities of fuel at a time and use it up. When your done for the season empty the rest in your car, and once the season is over. Run machine with a small amount of fuel additive unit it runs out of gas. Do not store any fuel in the machine for long periods of time. Or it may not even run next year.Helpful Reply
