Newish lawnmower doesn't keep running
Can someone please tell me why a 3 month old lawnmower won't run? It ran perfectly up until today. I mean, there was no hint of a problem until I tried to use it today. Now, it starts up rather vigorously, but then struggles for a moment and then stalls. It stalls especially quickly if I try to set it down on some grass (and likewise, if I leave it tipped up, it'll run longer, but not much). It has gas and it has oil. I saw the gas cap tip in some other threads and will give that a try, but can those things become plugged after only a partial season of use? And I store it in a garage if that helps. Also, the gas in it is fresh (i.e. wasn't from an old can or anything. In fact the can is new as well - bought it just for this lawn mower). Thanks in advance.
