  • / Mower runs for approx 10 minutes; then will not restart while warm
Craftsman Mower with Briggs & Stratton Gold OHV 140cc engine
Mower model (Craftsman #) is 247.370100
Briggs & Stratton Engine Model is 90P702 0007 F1

Started on first pull on cold mower. Ran well for apprx 10 minutes; then stopped running. No sputter like out of fuel. Just ran then stopped. Could not restart while warm. Was able to restart after 90 minutes. Thanks for your ideas.

The most likely thing is going to be the coil.
When a coil is going bad it will short out when it gets hot.
