If it runs good at half throttle, it just wont throttle up it sounds like the throttle cable has slipped. you might try to adjust it to get full throttle back .but if when you turn it up to full throttle and it dies then you have a choke, carburetor, fuel line, fuel filter or fuel tank problem. hope this gives you an idea.

Troy Bilt pony riding mower, starts, runs for a short period then chokes out. Changed air filter, spark plug cleaned kill switch under seat, still does the same thing.

Check and probably replace fuel filter. Then carb will need to be cleaned/rebuilt. Sounds like the needle valve is sticking or the float is sticking.

what color is the spark at your sparkplug? If it's red, it's weak,if it's blue it's hot, clean the magneto contacts with sandpaper and wd40 and clean the coil too, let me know how you did!

Troy built lawn mower (riding) won't go full

I did not know riding mower had a gas pedal. I know if you leave the throttle control up all the way the engine will choke out. The pedal you are pushing, I think, is the forward/reverse hydrostatic transmission. You may need a new drive belt. The one you have now may be stretched out.
Good Day.

The lawn mower ran out of gas and now won't restart. I tried starter fluid. will spark but not continue to run. Acts like it's not getting gas. Troy built super bronco. 3 months old

Remove plug or plugs and check them to see if tractor is now flooded. Clean plugs and check gap and reinstall. Check carb diaphram to see if it is totally closed or not. This will cause the motor to flood. Good Luck!

Lawn mower won't start /troy built 100706

First check to see that you are getting a spark. if you are getting spark (if same plug when you bought it change spark plug) make sure it is correct plug for that mower, make sure you have good gas. If still not starting and the machine probably was sitting for a while, clean the carb and then it should run fine.

Why would my troy buit lawn tractor sputter and

The tractor is bogging down under load, which can be due to a dirty carburetor or carb out of adjustment or it may just need a general tune up. Before you start tearing things apart, try some carb cleaner poured in the gas tank, and spray some carb cleaner down throat of carb. Check air cleaner and spark plug. Spray all linkages, connecting points, etc on the carb and engine to clean away any gunk.
