low oil shutdown, safety feature, when the oil pressure drops the thing will cut spark.
When you go on the slant like that, i think the oil pump comes out of the oil... better check oil levels...

It could also be the sensor under the seat, I know on mine if you get a little to the left or right of the seat it will shut down, it's a safety feature built in in case you fall off the mower. just my 2 cents.

jus pulled out my lawnmower from storage, cleaned the air filter and changed oil..so filled it up, cut my front lawn, ran like a charm..then i start cutting my ditch, like im on a fair slant, and about 30seconds to a minute after being on a slant, the thing jus shuts down on me..,.it never did this to me at all beforeso i try to restart it wont..so i get it back into the bottom of the ditch, pretty flat, after a few turns over, it fires up and i just parked it form there..what could be doing this? i know its off topic of 3 wheelers but, jus wondering if someone would knowBR>
thanks
