Mower runs good and cuts good for fifteen minutes then the engine sputters and cuts off. the mower cranks back but continues to sputter and eventually cuts off again. I don't think its the engine. after letting mower cool for a couple of hours, it again runs good for a few minutes but then begins sputtering and shuts off.
Mine did this too. THe semi-transparent fuel filter will look like no gas is in it if you have the problem I had. The gas cap on the tank has a tiny breather hole to keep it from coming under a vacuum as gas runs out. Push thru it with a toothpick to clear the hole. That's all it was. But I did have some black debris clogging the filter and had same symptom.
Please after it runs and quits, pull the fuel line and see how much flow of fuel you have,if not very much you tank has something blocking the flow and it can be in your fuel line,
