lift your seat and look at the label that you got your model number from. to the right of the model number is the serial number. the first six digits of the serial number is the date your tractor was made - for example: serial no. 060802D002756 would make the unit made June 8, 2002

first make sure the air intake screen on top of engine is not clogged with debris if thats not a concern you could have a faulty ignition coil etc your engine should have a two year warranty and can be serviced at no charge to you at your local briggs service dealer make sure and check your manual for the fine print though. Briggs makes a great engine and very rarely have I ever seen a problem allthough if you were to have an engine issue it will accur during the first few hours of opperation good luck

Briggs & Stratton 20hp Intek engine over-revving continuously.

Do you have governor adjusted properly? Possibly "PidStu" question, but you'd be surprised how many I've seen. Can you move the governor linkage arm with your fingers or does it seem to be locked in position? If it is locked, it is adjusted improperly.

Need to adjust your valves.....they are a solid lifter system that comes out of adjustment from time to time. Its a complex matter and if not done properly can damage camshaft.
