my 12.5 hp kawasaki on my mower goes into surging after 1 minute of running. I took carb off and cleaned very good but didn't take off any weltch plugs ( this right word?) thou. it seems better when I open up throttle. more noticable at lower rpm's. power doesn't seem to be hurt at all. is this a common thing for Kawi motors? any ideas on fix? thanks Gene
