Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): lawn mower acts like it wants to turn off, carburator, code numbers

Question
my lawn mower keeps acting like it wants to turn off so I had to increase the idle so it can run now my gas is running out a lot faster than usual.

Answer
 Hello Wayne:

 From your Description I suggest you Clean and Rebuild the Carburator. However, Depending on the Model, it May be the Valves Require Adjusting. Send me the Make, Model, Type and Code Numbers Off of the Engine, Please. With these Numbers I can Locate a Breakdown and Better Assist you. Hope this Helps. Let me know what Happens, Please. I enjoy knowing the Outcome. Thanks.

 Good Luck

 Respectfully

 John
