I have been having problems with my Honda stalling. Its a 96 model my parents bought new and I got it in 08 when I bought my house. I always had to engage the blades very slowly or it would stall but once engaged it ran fine but didn't handle tall or thick grass very well at all. Last year it started running worse and yesterday I tried to mow with it and it ran great for the first 10 minutes or so then it started stalling. Seems like the motor just doesn't have enough power but it seems to have plenty of power at first. It doesn't smoke or anything. After a while it wouldn't run at idle or full throttle, I had to run it with the lever all the way on choke. Then it started running at full throttle like it was at idle then would rev up like normal and go back and forth.
Finally it wouldn't cut grass so I shut it off and got my John Deere to finish the job. I like to use the Honda to mow my ditches and other hard to get into places for my John Deere.
I am not sure if I just need to clean the carb or if it could be another issue because it doesn't act like a dirty carb issue. What do you experts think? I am going to clean the carb first and I will report back. BTW it has fresh gas, a new air filter, new spark plug and fresh oil. My other thought is it could be an electrical issue?
