How's compression? Good fuel flow? Have you grabbed a service guide out of the tech section of this site?

Re: 2002 txt 295cc runs till warms up
I have pretty much exact same issue. I've changed everything but pulsar and generator. Do you happen to hear a chatter noise?

Re: 2002 txt 295cc runs till warms up
Had a similar issue on a Honda 390cc engine. stumped me and my brother (small engine mechanic) so I relented and asked the old man to look at it...
Of course he found it. It was the spark plug! It had a hair line crack and when it got warm the spark would jump to the outside of the plug instead of across the electrodes. Neer heard of that before or since but it ran great till warm. Let it sit for 10 mins and it would run again, until warm. |

Re: 2002 txt 295cc runs till warms up
+1 on plug
+1 on possible electrical issue +1 on any clatter from top end Another thing to try. Open up your valve clearance to 8 or 10 and see if it runs after it heats up. Should have chatter in top end and is not really a solution just a test procedure. If it does run Since it would not run at all before now when hot it does not would suggest a failure in the valve train. Bad guides, improper valve seat, mushroomed / worn valves, possible cam bearing issue. |

Re: 2002 txt 295cc runs till warms up
I hear a bunch of clatter when mine does it. What does that usually mean?

Re: 2002 txt 295cc runs till warms up
Can be a lot of things.
Chatter can you take a video? Can you tell where the noise is coming from? Top end bottom or clutch? Chatter i mentioned above is from loose valve clearance hammering everything or from bad parts rattling around. Loosing up clearance to make sure something that is getting hot is not holding open the valves loosing compression. Chatter Could also be detonation from carbon or spark plugs. Detonation from ignition issues. Ie coil ignitor or pulse coil. Detonation from rich / lean mixture. Erratic rpms causing the clutch to bang around and make racket. |

Re: 2002 txt 295cc runs till warms up
it may or may not be this but i will not run a large fuel filter on my golf carts. i use a small motorcycle fuel filter because my carts will vapor lock with those huge automotive filters. my cub tractor is the same way. they run great when cold but in this heat they make for a pain.

How often does the pulsar fail?
