As this mower only has a single blade, the causes are limited to either excessive blade flexing from using a blade with a cheaper, thinner aftermarket brand. Thinking that the the high-lift fins create upward suction in the middle while the resistance of thick grass twists the blade tips...

Sounds like you (+dealer) has looked at everything (except the one possibility that can cause this.) I'd recommend checking the tension on the deck belt. If it's slipping under load (cutting grass) the blade tips won't hit the required 18,000 rpm and cause sufficient airflow to discharge...

John, you marked this "solved." What did you find?

The tune up kit includes a fuel filter, but it doesn't look like a sponge. Possible someone replaced the filter with a sponge to act as a gas filter. I'd buy a tune up kit ($22) and do it right. (Probably needs a new plug and air cleaner anyway.) I also 2nd the use of the echo. I've never...

At this point, believe i would begin looking at the safety switches malfunctioning. Specifically the seat switch which tests good some of the time. Years ago, I had a seat switch that worked perfectly since new. But there was wear on the plastic switch housing and one day I must have hit a...

I have one of those type balancers, bought years ago. They are by far the most accurate and best way to balance a blade. Blade balance main purpose is to help the bearings in the spindle to last longer. Interestingly, I've found brand new blades that come unbalanced. Is it necessary? Not...

If you're talking about the rubber boot covering terminal, has nothing to do with starting. But when you resat the boot, you may have accidentally tightened the terminal connection. I'd recommend you pull off the boot and check the connections for tightness and corrosion.

You really need to measuse the batterys CCA rating. A bad battery can still show near 12 vdc before starting, and then drop dramatically during starting. Really sounds like your battery is near its end. Try pulling the caps off (usually under a large sticker on top, even maintenance free...
