I have a 4 hp tecumseh that runs good when it is first running.After a little while it seems to loose power,runs slower and slower.Ive cleaned and set float in carb,put a new carb kit in also.plug and wire...
This could be 3 of possible solutions to this problem..
From a Sears Tech of 22 years,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
1) Replace the Fuel Cap! Remember that air must fill the void of the fuel going out to the carburetor, If the fuel cap is clogged It will cause poor performance.
2) Clogged fuel filter or bad fuel line, Ethanol in today's fuels can cause many problems for fuel related components in any engine that is made today!
3) Carburetor and Ignition, including flywheel timing key! Possible sheered flywheel key, Lack of fuel to engine over 5 minutes. Vapor Lock? Change to different fuel filter!!!
