Ive got a husqvarna disc cutter.
Symptoms are that it starts and runs fine... until any load is put on it. Then it stalls. Maybe not instantly, but i had to restart it about 8 times to cut one block, and it was getting worse and worse.
It will restart fine.
Im guessing its fuel or air (well, not a lot more it can be?)
Background -
machine bought used
always started and run fine, but...
if the fuel has been left in it, i have to change it, before it will start. suspect it has a tiny leak somewhere and the volitiles evaporate (fuel i tip out always looks too red)
Ive not even bothered to ask the person i lent it to, as im sure they will say it was running fine...
