Question
I have a honda mower that will run until it gets hot then cuts off.  I can let it cool down and then it will run a little longer.  do you think that it's some bad gas or could it be what I've been told is a vapor lock, whatever that is.  thanks for any advise you could give me.  Dan

Hello Dan:

This is an Easy One. No Worries. The Next Time it Quits, Check the Spark Plug for Fire. If No Fire, then the Coil/Magneto/Ignition Module is Bad. If there is Fire, then Check the Gas Tank Cap and Ensure the Cap is Venting Properly. You can View a Breakdown/IPL of the Mower at this Site Addy, http://hayward.arinet.com/scripts/EmpartISAPI.dll?MF&app=ASP&lang=EN&TF=Mainfram... and Select the Catalog American Honda. Hope this Helps. I am here if you Require more Assistance. Let me know what Happens, Please. Thanks.

Good Luck
