Hello guys. I inherited a riding mower with a 15.5 Briggs intel engine. It wasn t running so I replaced carb. Replaced blown. Head gasket. Adjusted valves. Replaced battery. Replaced mower deck pulleys. Fuel filter and lines. It fires right up no problem. Idles perfect, no surging etc. the problem I noticed when I used it for the first time under load, to mow the lawn this weekend is that once the blades are engaged and cutting the engine seems to slow down and it almost feels like it s loosing a good amount of power and sounds different. When I disengage the blades it goes back to sounding perfect and idling as it should. Never had one of these mowers so I don t know if it s normal for it loose that much power under load or is there something o need to adjust. Thanks in advance.
