Why does my mower stop after a few minutes?
Symptoms are the engine starts to surge for a few minutes and if I continue mowing it will eventually stop. It won’t restart except very reluctantly with the choke on. But even then it runs badly, stalls again and won’t perform under power i.e. mow or drive.
What does it mean when your car won’t restart?
And–most important of all–does “won’t restart” mean that the starter fails to activate when you turn the key, or does it mean that the starter cranks the engine but the engine does not start and run on its own? Since it’s intermittent and unlikely to be tested while malfunctioning, I would guess ignition module or crank position sensor.
Why does my car not start when I crank the gas?
Contrarywise, the engine cylinders may have too much fuel. To find out, hold the gas pedal to the floor (up to 10 seconds) while you crank the engine. Let up on the gas as (if) the engine starts. If it cranks but does not start, sometimes a temperature sensor is bad and the computer can’t figure out the proper amount of fuel to inject.

Why does my engine not restart when it’s Hot?
If there is puffing or popping near the engine head, the head bolts might not be tight. If the engine spins over too freely when it’s hot.. indicating much lower compression, check the torque of the head bolts.. if they were loose, the engine should now restart.
