Default She's mowing again.

For now,

Thanks for the info.

Rebuilt the carburetor noticed the gaskets were shot or missing (bottom of bowl) and still had issues. Then went back to the electrical and found the points had opened up. Adjusted it to 20 thousands, and still an issue. Then checked the plug and cleaned it, then I got spark. Next I adjusted carburetor and during the two acres and got it to seem to run fine. A little combination of everything maybe. I am planning to rebuild the engine this winter.

Question: I was told, if I do, I should bore the cylinder.

In retrospect the bogging down was if the ignition was too early or too late.
