| Possible Cause | Correction |
|---|---|
| Choke is in the incorrect position. | Once the engine has started the choke lever should be all the way to the left or full choke position. |
| Air filter is dirty. | Clean or replace the air filter. |
| Spark plug is faulty. | Clean, adjust gap or replace the spark plug. |
| Gas is old. | Gas should be fresh, clean gas. If the gas is old change it. If you keep gas longer than 30 days, always add an ethanol specific fuel stabilizer per Briggs and Stratton’s instructions. |
| Oil is not at the proper level or is dirty. | Check the oil level and adjust accordingly. (See Briggs and Stratton owner’s manual.) If dirty, change the oil per the instructions in the owner’s manual. |
| The exhaust from the mower is overheating the engine. | In some cases the exhaust from your mower can be blowing directly onto the engine of the Cyclone Rake. |
