Outdoor Power Equipment (Lawn Mowers, Snow Blowers, Chain Saws and more) Discussions

Hello, I have this Honda lawnmower. When I engage the lever to move the blade sometimes the engine stalls. Am I doing something wrong or do I have a problem? Is adjusting the height low causing this?

I started the lawnmower for the first time this year. Adjusted the height, no more stalling. But the throttle/choke handle did not want to move at all. Took me 10 minutes to finally move it. I have the manual also, did not remember anything I needed to do before moving it. Must have stuck somehow. Old machine but works, best of all it has an aluminum deck.
