[SEL] O/T Briggs and stratton help needed

[Rupert]

Hello Steve,
	It's probably the coil as others have said. You could check the gas 
tank cap to make sure the vent is clear. A plugged cap vent will act 
like that too. A simple check on the vent is to try starting the engine 
right away with the cap loose or off. Haven't had this happen to me on 
small engines but have on tractors and older cars.
