I already have a question out there on my yard machine that took off by itself,this is about my back-up it is a sears LT/10e cast iron engine block solid state ignition not the greatest looking machine but seemed to run fine until I was cutting grass and it seemed to lose power at first I thought it was just getting hot,so I let it cool down but it still ran like crap it seems to lose power when I engage the mower deck and also when I put it in gear. Runs fine when nothing is engaged,I pulled the carb and found some old gunk in it I cleaned it up and put it back together but I'm not sure on the setting on the needle values one on the bottom of the float and one in the middle of the carb,also has one on the top of carb,is it something with the govener? No power any ideas? Thanks I'm out of mowers and grass is getting high. Don
