E100 with less than 24 hours. After running for 45 to and hour the mower starts skipping and some times backfires. Not a lot but it is a pain because you think it is going to die on you. Fuel is good. Filter is good. Not vents closed. Only happens so far in 90 degree weather (so far all weather is 90 or above)

Strongly recommend you video your tractor when this occurs since it's a new machine under warranty. Take video to your dealer and let them see what they think

The engine is getting so hot that the fuel is boiling in the carb. Take the hood off so it gets better airflow around the engine.
