  Your Snapper Lawn Mower might stall or stop after running due to several reasons. First, ensure the blade control is held securely against the handle at all times during operation. Other potential causes include an empty fuel tank (fill to the proper level), a dirty engine air pre-cleaner or air cleaner (clean of all debris), a defective spark plug or improperly set gap (service the spark plug), or water, debris, or stale fuel in the fuel system (drain and clean the fuel system).
