Hey guys, I've got a Briggs and Stratton 28B707 Engine on a DR Brush mower. It ran great last year, but now I'm having all kinds of trouble with it. A mouse spent some time in it over the winter. I can get it to start, and it runs fine for a bit, then with a puff of white smoke from the exhaust, it dies. I'm able to start it again, but the next time, it runs even less and dies again. I've checked the wires for the "shut off" and I think they're good. I've changed the fuel line, I've cleaned out the carb. I've released the gas cap (to make sure it's venting). On this model, the fuel line runs over the exhaust, and it has a heat shield on it. (Just FYI..). I'm wondering if maybe that has something to do with it? Any help you can give would be appreciated. Also, I'm no pro, but it seems to me the fuel line barely drops ... in other words, it comes out of the tank and runs level to the carb, or almost angles up in a few spots and then down...? (I can take pics the next time I'm out at the farm..).
Thanks so much (in advance)!
