Hello,
I have a fairly new to me Super C. It runs really good except for on two occasions now it will start sputtering and stumbling for a minute or two and then clear up. The first time it only did it once after running a few hours and I didn't worry much about it. Now yesterday it gave me fits for the first hour of trying to mow. It died on me a few times and then finally cleared up and mowed good for the last few hours.
When this happens I see no smoke coming out of the muffler. If I pull the choke out at all, it doesn't help. When I looked in the gas tank it looked pretty clean, but maybe I got something floating around in there. The tractor has new plugs, wires, points, and condensor. I also replaced the springs in the distributor. Does this sound like a fuel delivery problem or a random electrical problem?
Thanks for any ideas,
Dan
