Need to know what engine it is, yes we know its a Briggs but they make many give us the numbers that are on the engine, and we be able to help you out with your problem.

I know the engine well.......if you set the valves perfect then you have a cam shaft issue..Your compression release is shot...

Very common problem on this forum.....

Probably thr compression release but I would check all battery connections first especially the ground connection to the mower frame. Try the cheap things first.
