Unhappy Mower stalls when pushed
I have got a 1984 Briggs and Stratton 3hp push mower, and every time I push it the mower stalls out and dies. I do not know where the model number is located on it

Sounds like maybe water in the tank. The model # is stamped on the metal engine shroud near the cylinder on the side.
