Lawnmower Re-Starting Problem
I had one like that and the local small engine repair shop just kept
selling me stuff. After 5 visits I put my foot down and asked the
owner to either fix it or return all the money I had given them. He
fixed by removing a bunch of leaves and grass that were clogging the
heat fins.

Hi,
My son doesn't live in the area, so I can't go down there and offer any
advice first hand.
Also, he's pretty non-mechanical.
Anyway, he has a Toro walk behind lawnmower purchased last year, so it's
pretty new. It's the kind you squeeze the handle, and it moves.
Pretty typical kind; bought at HD.
Anyway, it always starts just fine.
But after a 1/2 hour or so, just about every time, it shuts off.
Won't re-start (while hot).
Plenty of gas and oil.
But when trying again when cold after a few days, it starts just fine.
Any ideas what might be wrong ?
Any hints on getting it to re-start while very warm ?
i don't think there is any Carb lever on these models like for full-choke,
half-choke, etc. Are there ?
Thanks,
Bob
