Nash M asked:
My lawn mower is about two years old. But when I mow it works fine for a while then shuts off. I’ve cleaned the filter, it has plenty of gas, and the oil is good. A friend said to spray a little WD-40 on it and it worked fine for a minute and then the same thing again. Can’t figure out exactly the problem is. Any answers or suggestions?

The spark plug or maybe the spark plug or adjusted.
The carburetor needs to be cleaned or adjusted.

Try cleaning the air vent holes in the gas cap.
