Hey guys im running an L11o with the 17.5 kohler command. It was never in winter storage, is used almost daily, and always ran like atop until today. It will start and run great for about a minute, sputter out and die. When it starts to die you can put it on full choke and it will run absolutely fine for about another minute and then quit alltogether. Wait two minutes and it will fire right up and repeat the process above. When it doesnt start it spins real fast and tries to catch but doesnt, like when an ignition module on a car is going. It has spark, the plug is new(and I tried a different one with same results) along with the fuel filter. The fuel filter never drains and is always full. I am about to test the fuel pumps output but I do not believe that is the cause and the carburator is spotless, I just cleaned it a month ago. I tested the fuel solenoid and it checks out fine. Im thinking the coil perhaps because I really cant think of anything else. This has me stumped. Any info or suggestions you may be wuilling to share would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Steve
