I had this issue on my 14hp kohler and it was the ignition module. Would run until it heated up then shut down.

Your hydro transmission is low/out of oil or it need to be rebuilt or a new one.

there are many variables, since you didn't give any specifics. if it is an older, single cylinder, L-head engine, labor would be roughly 1/2 hour; if an older twin, L-head, about 1 hour; if it's a kohler, add about 1/2 hour; if it's a single, OHV, about 1 hour; if a twin OHV, 1 1/2 hours; if a kohler, add 1/2 hour. each shop has it's own labor rate. flat rate manuals will vary and are not realistic when dealing with old, possibly rusted or frozen bolts, which will increase the cost of repair. a new head gasket will usually cost between $5 to $30, depending on which engine you have. {some older craftsmans had a briggs laid sideways or an onan. these will require a lot more work and the labor would be higher]

10w-30 oil. The only grease fittings I know of are on the front wheels and axles.

if you go to sears.com click on parts direct
enter your mod # and to the right of the next page says get manual click on that and then click on view manual and it should come up for your mower

Is this a Kohler engine? If so there is a wire going to the coil from a 2 wire harness located at rear of engine near spark module. Unplug this wire to determine if problem is coil or a safety switch.

any small engine repair shop should carry that switch - or sears . com - just put in your model number
