[jayrogers]

my bx 2350, starts ok but as soon as i rev it over 2600, it lopes and goes down to 800 and then back up. if i keep it at 25oo rpms it runs smoothly. it is only 4 years old. I need help to define problem.

About has to be a fuel problem. When's the last time it was serviced, fuel filter, air filter ect?

How often is it used? Does it have good fresh fuel in it? Have you tried using some conditioner to make sure it doesn't have algea or water in the fuel?

It sounds like a fuel delivery problem, but I am no mechanic. Have you changed your two fuel filters? Might also want to check your air filter. How many hours do you have on it?

EDIT: I see Bulldog beat me to it.

TripleR, I see we were thinking on the same lines.

Probably plugged fuel filters but it could be a governor spring problem. Start with the easy fix first. Drain your tank into a 5 gal bucket, make sure you've got good flow out of the hose and then inspect the tank bottom for crud. Clean the tank if necessary then change your fuel filters, refill with fresh fuel, make sure you've got good flow out of the filters and then hook everything back up and drive it for a bit to work the new fuel up through the pump and lines.

EDIT: That makes three of us!

i use this weekly, even thru the winter. no algae and i just filled the tank with new fuel. i took off plastic filter and blew thru it and it was clear. is there a u tube or something on the bx2350 on these filter locations. i found the one on the left side of the motor. where is the second one?

Did you look at both pictures? One is pretty hard to get to.

apparently the second one is on the underside of the unit

From RayDaKub on another forum, "There are 2 filters. One up by the injector pump, the other just inline ahead of the electric pump. To get to the one ahead of the pump, pull off your mower if you have one, and crawl underneath. There is no filter up by the tank itself."
