Default 107 struggles to stay running

My 107 struggles to stay running after about 30 minutes of use. Runs fine for awhile then bogs way down and almost quits but catches itself and stays running. Then runs fine for about 20-30 seconds then starts to die again. It keeps this up until I shut it down. Maybe the coil is gettin hot? Or something else?

The coil could be the problem, but can you give us some background on the machine, have you had it awhile, is it new to you?

What have you checked to bring you to this conclusion?

What kind of maintenance have or do you preform on this machine?

Is this a machine that sat for a long time and has recently come out of storage?

Anything that you can tell us about the machine could be helpful in diagnosing the problem.

I've had this machine for 8 years. Usually have no problems. It did this awhile back a few times then not at all last mowing season, but now has resumed this year. Regularly serviced with oil changes, new spark plug every year, remove carb for a soak and cleaning every year as well. Nothing but 87 octane non-ethanol gas since I've owned it. Even pulled the tank off a couple times for flushing. Sediment bowl is always clean and clear. When the engine nearly dies it pops thru the carb a few times as well. Sometimes the engine will snuff right out but fires back up easily.

Hmmmm...

Make sure that ALL ignition connects are clean and tight. Kohler coils hardly ever fail, more likely condenser or bad connections.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
