    22hp briggs cuts off/runs out of gas when hot
    The mower slows down and runs out of gas when it gets hot at times. Let it set for a few minutes to cool off and it will start back. Gas filter is empty when it cuts off, and will fill back by itself when it sets for 10 to 15 min. any suggestions! Thanks

    Loosen the gas cap and see what happens. The vent could be plugged in the cap.

    Hi,
    Well first off, replace the filter, they get clogged. I got lambastted with one of those, much to my chagrin.
    Peace,
