Why does my mower sputter?
Dirt in the system as well as bad fluids will make the mower perform inefficiently. Sputtering of the engine while mowing is often an indication of bad mower maintenance, not a fault with the machine. Most repairs to stop sputter are cheap and part of your regular mower maintenance.
What causes a car engine to stop running?
Intermittent faults in ignition modules can also cause an engine to suddenly stop running, and are often heat-related. When the module overheats, it quits working — but starts working again after it cools down (say 15 to 30 minutes later).
How long does a gas engine run for?
Gas was drained and refilled with new – it was also clean. Engine runs for a few minutes (3 – 5). Then it sputters real bad — sounds like knocking. Then dies. Seems like it is getting worse. It doesn’t even run long enough for the engine to warm up. I replaced the fuel pump.
Why does my ATV run for a few minutes then stall?
As the engine heats up the coil looses its resistance and fails to deliver the charge needed to start the engine. Without bombarding you with technical numbers or making you buy testing equipment, I would simply run the ATV until it dies and pull the plug.
What to do when engine stall Idle Stop?
Aim for the little air bypass holes in the throttle opening. Use the small plastic tube that attaches to the nozzle on the aerosol can to aim the cleaner directly into the bypass port (s). Let the cleaner soak for at least 10 minutes before giving it another blast of cleaner.
Why does my riding lawn mower quit after a few minutes?
You may be able to get the mower started again, but it quits not long after. You can check a few possible causes before taking your mower to a service technician. Water and gasoline do not mix well. Water prevents proper ignition when it enters the engine. Sometimes, the motor runs for a while before it sputters and dies.

Why does my Briggs and Stratton engine stop after 10 minutes?
Letting it sit until it cools possibly allows enough time for air to seep in and equalize the pressure so it’s good for another 10 minute run. Is the engine sputtering and slowly dying or when it’s good and hot is it like you flipped a switch? If it’s running fine and then just dies it could be the ignition coil failing when it gets hot.
How long does a boat run before it stalls?
First time it started I had it idling and moved the throttle slightly forward. after about 30 seconds it made a knocking noise like it was binding and died. Started it again and same thing. Started again and gave it more gas. Seemed to run better for about 5 minutes.
