mtd ride on lawnmower running rough
i got a mtd lawnmower given to me by my uncle and have througly cleaned the carb, i charged the battery and it started, it is running but misses at idle, it is not the flywheel key but i think it may be that the valves may need adjusting, how do i know if they do or not, it is 12 HP ohv techumseh engine, it had three sets of numbers on it, ovxl120, 2020300 and 0072r
any suggestions?

Did you use new gas? If now, how old is the gas that is in it?
