I've got an older coleman power mate generator with a 10hp tecumseh motor. It starts and runs great with choke on and 1 pull, then hurry to get choke off.
Engine was professionally serviced and carb cleaned about a month ago. It ran good for about 20 hours until this recent issue.
It will run for 5-10 minutes then starts missing and quits. It will start up again with choke on 1 pull choke off 1 pull and starts and runs good for another 5-10 minutes.
It's not the gas cap. Gas is fresh. I've dropped the fuel bowl and checked fuel flow. Its good. It's spotless inside carb.
Any suggestions on what to check next?
