I see a whole assortment of ideas. With my Gravely Commercial C-10 machine it was driving me crazy. It is a magneto coil under the flywheel type Kholer K series engine. In cold weather I was toast because it had the snow blower on it. You need to try HI-Test gas for a few weeks. Drain the tank and pour in several gallons of hi-test.

As others have said you need to find the throttle, choke, and lolliop set of magic settings.
