SOURCE: Full Tank

I had the same error and the tank was not even full. I took the cover off of the unit which consisted of removing 10 screws. The water tank is on the bottom left side. I then removed the float which was a small sensor with a styrofoam float. I removed the float (2 more screws) and moved it up and down. It did not appear to move very smooth but after moving it back and forth a few time it seemed better. I put the float back in ensuring it was at the low point, screwed it back in and then tested the unit. It came on and appears to work fine now. I unplugged again putt the cover back on it has now ran 30 minutes no problems.

SOURCE: hesitation, stalling like out of gas

Clogged Catalytic Converter. What happens is as you push down harder on the accelerator you force more gas into the system causing a slightly richer mixture and more exhaust flow is neccessary. The easiest way to look for a clogged cat is when it's dark out take it for a ride causing it perform it's problem look under the vehicle if the cat is literally glowing red hot you either have a clogged cat or an extremely rich fuel mixture.

SOURCE: engine cutting off

Depends on how it cuts off. If it gradually slows down over a few minutes or surges, it's likely the carburetor needs to be cleaned and rebuilt. But if it's an immediate cut off, it's likely to be a safety switch such as the one that shuts down the engine when you get off the seat if the mower is running. Sometimes this happens frequently to a light person who bounces on the seat when mowing.

SOURCE: my cub cadet tank stops running 5-20 minuts after

Yes you may need a carb kit. It is not good practice to by-pass the fuel filter. The orifice in the jet is very small.
But anyways, There Could still be a blockage inside the carb, a small leak at the manifold, or the jet is worn out.
Let me know how it goes.

How do you store a snow blower for the summer

Hose off all the dirt and salt residue, taking care not to get water in the air filter or gas tank. Drain the gas. Run the engine til the carb is empty. Remove the float bowl to get the last drop of gas out. If you've never changed the fuel filter or it doesn't have one, now is a good time. Clean the air filter. Change the oil. Lubricate wheel axles, chain and anything else that rotates, all cables, and pivot points.

Hi, I have a 13.5hp Briggs & Stratton motor which starts and will only run on choke slow rpms and mild smoke.

check the point where the fuel hose goes to the fuel tank
there is very fine filter in the hose that could be blocked preventing full fuel flow
only running on choke indicates insufficient fuel flow

Zero turn mower is sputtering and dies

Check everything is clean. Check the air filter is clean, check that the engine cooling fan, cutting blades and cutting deck are free of grass. Check all the drive belt pulleys to ensure accumulated grass is not jamming anything. Check the fuel filler cap is clean and the breather hole works.

Gasoline draining into crankcase oil & running out muffler

The float needle assy in the carburetor is stuck open. You first need to clean/rebuild the carburetor. Then you need to drain the oil, be careful it will come out fast. The fuel acts as a thinner. Change the oil. Remove the spark plug and rotate the engine several times to put oil where the gas had washed it away. Put fuel in tank, make note of level and wait a few minutes, while waiting reinstall spark plug. Then check that the fuel in tank at same level as when you last checked it. Check oil. If everything is okay, you are good to try a start.

Warning Do Not Run Mower Until Repairs Completed

I hope this gets you going.

Describe your Excalibur Gas Hedge 22" Trimmer Blade Problem It starts up but runs for only 3 minutes or so and then stops. My husband is very smart and tried everything he knows. Cleaned any...

Back to basics, do you have a spark at the plug? do you have fresh fuel in the tank? have you replaced the pick up filter in the fuel tank? have you removed the muffler and taken a look at the piston face through the open port to see if the engine has nipped up?

Honda GX160 runs fine for 5 minutes then dies like out of fuel.

I would look for the fuel filter. Blow it our. I know you have a new tank of gas, but you might want to empty it out and make sure the clean and put in new. Even with Stabil in the gas you might just have to much condensation in the tank
