I still have it in there, but if I have any issues I'll jerk it out. Good info on the fuel filters. I need to add one pronto. I know how to look at my old threads now and will do so, if needed 🤞 Thanks again!

I think that must have been it... 🤗 Before I removed the swirl plate, I fired it up one last time this morning and to my surprise, it seemed to run much better! I put the cover with air cleaner on it, mowed for over an hour, ran great, and no coughs! 🤗 Thank you all for your help!

I know you verified the ground connection, but I'd make sure the negative end of the bat cable is nice and "tight" where it connects to the engine. I had funky voltage readings before and it was due to that loose ground conn.

I had a similar problem and it turned out to be a loose negative battery cable at the engine.
