Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Briggs&Stratton Murray 3.5 HP, briggs stratton, coil ignition

Question
Why will it run for a little while then die?

Answer
 Hello Freddy:

 If the Engine Starts and Quits or Starts and Quits After 30 Seconds to 1 Minute, then the Most Common cause is the Carburetor needs to be Cleaned and Rebuilt. If the Engine Starts and Runs for 5 to 10 Minutes and Quits, then the Most Common cause is the Coil/Ignition Module is Bad. Send me the Model, Type and Code Numbers Off the Engine, Please. With these I can Locate a Breakdown/IPL and Better Assist you. Hope this Helps. I am here if you Require more Assistance. Let me know what Happens, Please. Thanks. Be Safe.

 Good Luck

 Respectfully

 John
