It's a Tecumseh 5hp.

Yeah I'm swapping out the spark plug tomorrow. Hopefully that takes care of it. I got it from someone who hasn't used it for a couple yrs. It didn't run, so I drained the gas, cleaned the spark plug, cleaned the bowl out and it fired right up. After that I used it a couple times, and now it's acting up 15-20 mins after being started. I was thinking of cleaning the air filter, but can't tell where it's at without ripping off a bunch of plastic. Is it somewhere easy that I'm just overlooking? It's a MTD Yard Machines 21"/5hp with electric start. Thinking @ 3-4 yrs old. Thanks for the help.

I took the spark plug out and it looks like the tip was dipped in oil. I mixed 50:1 according to the manual. Any thoughts? Thanks
