Our 4840 starts running extremely bad and will not hardly pull itself after operating it 20 minutes or so. Temp does not seem high. Any ideas? If I am advised to change ruel filters can someone guide me as to where and how many filters there are? Thanks

Not pulling it's self, do you mean the engine has no power or the drive system has no power?
If it's the engine, i agree that is could be a fuel system blockage.
Thanks--my son and I replaced the smaller in-line filter and that seems to halp a lot. We ordered the screw-on second filter and are anxious to see if that clears up the problem totally. The smaller fileter was really bad and I am sure it restricted fuel badly. gc

I would replace the inline again when you change the big one they are cheap and you might have filled it already
