Easy start but when start mowing or shake lawnmower then motor stalls.
Last year I disassembled carb and cleaned because it's use to work only with half choke.
Any suggestions?

Hello, have another look in your carb bowl , if you have a bit of water in the bottom and as you shake it it may put a spot of water into the jet and stop the engine .Gary

Hello, just another thought, have you checked the fuel flow from the fuel tank as something at the bottom of the tank blocking the outlet may move when shaken to give a bit of fuel until it runs out .As i say just a thought . Gary

Brake cable was not firmly attached.
