I was mowing with my Snapper which is powered by a Briggs Intek 12.5. When I throttled the engine down, and set the parking brake it died and would not restart, but rather sounded like it had locked up. I checked the oil level and it was fine. Then I heard a boiling, bubbling noise and gas was pouring out the bottom of the air filtr compartment. Anybody?

Hi,
Float stuck open, crankcase filled with gas. Clean carb, replace fuel filter, change engine oil with 30 Wt, and filter if so equipped.
Peace,
Clarke
