I inherited a 24" Craftsman front tine tiller with 5hp Briggs and Stratton engine. ~20+ yrs old.
It will start (only using starter fluid) and after a brief idle, it will run full speed and till for about 5 minutes with the choke closed ~1/2 way. Once it is warm it will not run at full speed; although it will start at idle. My guess is vapor-lock or fuel line constriction, what should I do? Blow air thru the line, remove carb and fuel lines, etc ???
It has fresh gas, ran carb cleaner thru the intake, lubricated governer spring, cleaned air filter, etc...
B&S 5 HP.
Model 130202
Type 1907-01
Code 87010210
Thanks in advance.
