1816 case skid

[johndeerbob]

Ive had this problem for ssome time now. When I work my skid in warmer weather it will vaporlock and die. After 20 or 30 mins it will start and run a short time and die again. It has a kholer mag 16 in it,ive tried a electric fuelpump but did the same thing. any help you could offer would be app. thank you bob

Have seen Kohler's on Case lawn tractors get carbon build up on top of piston and cyl. head. When eng warms up, carbon would get hot an cause eng to sputter and die. The remedy then was to pop head off and clean. Looking back, I wonder if removing air filter and spraying water into eng. with spray bottle while running, would have cleaned up carbon?
