Answer
Hello Rayleiby:

Send me the Model Numbers Off the Engine, Please. With these I can Locate the Proper Manual and Better Assist you. However, Check the Gas Tank Cap and Ensure it is Venting the Tank Properly. Have you Checked the Flywheel Key for Damage? The Fly Key if Damaged will Cause this Also. Hope this Helps. I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Let me Know What Happens, Please. Thanks.

Good Luck
