What's your engine model #? if it's an overhead valve engine it will be stamped into the metal valve cover on the front of the engine if it's a flathead it will be stamped around the sparkplug on the metal shroud, or if it's an I/C briggs the tag will be riveted to the top of the cover.

Does it do it all the time or just when you change the load on the engine by turning the blades on or changing the speed ?
