Mower dies after running for 20-30 minutes

I did check it early on in the process and it was flowing fine. I think it was a combination of a weak fuel pump and a clogging filter. Changing the fuel pump took the run time from 15min to 1hr.

Hey, I'm not too proud to share my failures. Hopefully it helps someone else. Nobody would have learned anything if I never posted or never posted a fix. Even if all you learned is that I'm a dumbass when I'm not a smartass, at least you got that.

True, learn from other’s mistakes because you’ll never live long enough to make them all yourself. Or something like that. So we all thank you.

I would if they made one with a 72" floating deck and suspension for under $10k.

Can you get that in a fair quality new Internal Combustion mower for under $10k?

No, the current model of my Ferris is $18k. That’s why I bought it used for less than $5k.

A chiwanese 11hp 36in deck rider at a big box store is over two grand . The cheap zero turns start around three.

Unfortunately it’s only 44hp, not 144hp. Still a heck of a machine though.

But think of all the little helpless baby carbons you'll be saving.

I think the sacrifice of your money is worth it.

Not purchasing battery operated mowers prevents South African children from living in mines. You will save children by buying gas

The best solution hasnt been mentioned. Forget gas, diesel or batteries.
You need a grass powered grass cutter. They say that the perpetual motion 100% efficiency machine doesnt exist...but it does. And your wife will think they are cute. And as a bonus when the fuel filter gets clogged you make a free bowl of chilli. Its greatest of all time solution.
