Have had an intermittent running problem as of late. During full throttle with the deck engaged the will start to lose power. There is no pattern to it and sometimes I can cut all day and other times it starts to act up every 5 minutes.
Oil/filter has been changed, replaced the fuel filters (even though they are not due for a change), put a new air filter in and same problem.
The only thing I have noticed is the fuel pump does not run at a constant rate, IE: it usually makes a even sound when I turn the ignition on. Obviously I can't hear it how it sound when the engine is running.
I thought electric fuel pumps were either work, or not work so I am hesitant to just buy one because it sounds like its not working.
Any thoughts?
I will add that a couple months ago I had a problem with one of the employee's putting gas in the mower and then asking me why the engine would not run,,,,,,,,,
That was a whole bunch of fun, flushing the tank and fuel system,,,,,,,,,
Could that have damaged the fuel pump or something else in the system? It was running fine after spending more time than I care to mention flushing out all the gas,,,,,,,
