Hello

We have a gx120 Honda engine on a spray rig. It dies immediately only when we turn left.

I thought maybe it was carburetor related. Put a new carburetor on it today and it continues to die, only when turning left. It will start right back up afterward.

Noticed the air filter was pretty nasty and changed that too.

Any help appreciated! Don’t want to do right turns all the time.

what is the set up like on the sprayer? might have something to do with the low oil shut off, but depends on how its mounted.

It’s mounted on the tongue of the sprayer right in front of the tank. I’ll have to check the oil!

I knew a fellow that had an old bob tail ford truck that did the same thing on left turns. Would never guess in a million years but it was the battery.:laughing:
