    Lawnmower stops running
    I have a "Weed Eater" 22' lawnmower. I have changed the spark plug, added new oil and put in new gas. When I crank it, it runs for about 1 minute and then quits. Any ideas?

    Does it crank right back up, but again only run for about a minute?

    Sounds like a fuel filter could be the culprit, or possibly trash in the fuel tank.

Lawnmower will not stop running! [ 2 Answers ]

My lawnmower will not stop running once it starts. I tightened the cable that runs from the handle to the engine, no luck. I saw a green wire that is loose - looks like it should be plugged into something. Could this be the problem - is this a ground wire? Do lawnmowers have ground wires?
