Usually on HOT days and       after running the gas tank maybe to half or less (filled before       mowing). It has a Kohler Command 25hp 2-cyl on it with a Crankcase       Pulse Fuel Pump. Just put up with it for awhile but it kinda bugged me.       I ordered a cheap replacement pump and a new air filter on a hunch. The       Air Filter looked okay but had oil from the rocker cover (vapor       recovery) contaminating it. Replacing the Air Filter got rid of the       stumble, didn't need the new pump. Has been a couple years now and       hasn't happened since. The vapor recovery is a direct shot into the       intake, bypasses the Air Filter. Think it was sucking so hard on the       vapor recovery that it was messing up the amount of "pulse" available       for the fuel pump...       Leon Fisk              -----------------------------------------       Maybe the cause was the pressure drop through the clogged filter. The quick       test would be running without it.              I picked up a couple of these second-hand to measure wood stove draft and       heatsink pressure drop, an indication of air flow rate. This would be a good       use for them.       https://www.dwyeromega.com/en-us/low-differential-pressure-gauge       no-power-needed-ip67/p/Series-2000-Magnehelic?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
