My Husqvarna has a 22hp briggs and Stratton vanguard and it is surging like it will runs strong for a second or two then sort of stall but stays running and repeats for about 5 min till it dies any ideas?

had the same problem on a honda. I had just cleaned the carb and put it back together and it ran just like that. finally figured out that the low speed side of the carb was clogged with some dirt. high speed side was perfect, low speed junky. took lots of carb cleaner and compressed air in all the little tiny ports to get it to run right. I would try that first.
