The mower will run well but if I go up an incline it dies out and won't always start again immediately. I think it must be getting flooded (my uneducated guess) but how can that be prevented? I must mow hills and can noat always use the contour.
Thanks, Trudge

If the carb is a diaphram carb, then the diaphram may have a hole in it.
