Why does the engine die after the tractor runs for 10,15 minutes?
My Craftsmann 15.5 HP, 42'' lawn Tractor (Koehler engine), Model 917, quits after about 15 minutes of operation. It won't start again until it's completely cooled down, usually 1; 1 1/2hours? the carb. is new from 2006. I was told it might be the coil. How can I resolve.
I am having the same problem, I notice the gas tank collapsing, by unscrewing the cap and letting air in I get another 15 to 20 minutes. Still searching for solution, but it has to do with air to the carborator
