After replacing the gas cap and filter, one may want to read the codes and then clear them using a scanner. Since the vehicle is so new, it may require a certain update, though, so the dealer may be the best place to go.

Good luck on this repair.

22hp v-twin intec B&S starts, runs & cuts good for 15 -20 minutes then starts to loose power, sputters & eventually dies.

The OHV engine requires periodic valve adjustment. Typically every 300 hrs.

Another possible cause is an ignition module failing at operating temperature. Run until it fails and check for spark at BOTH plugs.

Wich o2 sensor did you replace? If it's the upstream one you may have a clogged Cat converter, this makes the engine run badly due to restricted exhaust flow. When you first turn the ignition to the on position make sure the "check engine " light comes on momentarily, if you notice it come on the the above is likely your problem. Scan the car for codes anyway (you still might have codes in memory!)

Best of luck!

How to fix a1998 buick century to start fuel filter new and airfilter turning over but not starting gets gas

Did you check for spark? It sounds like you're not getting spark. Check for spark. If you are not getting spark then it sounds like you might have to replace the coil packs. Is it running a L4 engine? If its running a standard chevy L4 its probably the coil packs. Try to replace them check again for spark.

Should have drained the tank. Not only was it old gas but it may have had some condensation in it.
Now that you have a Check Engine light, hook up a code reader and see what code(s) are there. Then you can get back here and I'll see what I can do to lead you in the right direction.

2002 kia rio rxv check engine light came on again..

the check engine light is not caused by any wrong fluid level or dirty air filter or anything else like that, it is caused by well over 100 faults that can occur in the computer controlled electronic engine and emission controls, u will need to go to a Kragen or Autozone parts store and get a free OBD 2 fault code test to get the code that set your light.

Engine Light

The check engine light has nothing to do with the oil, water etc. it signals that a fault has occurred in the engines electronic controls and it has failed a test of some system that the cars computer runs every few minutes while the engine is running, it can be one of a 100 different systems that made the light come on, take the car to a Kragen Auto parts store or another chain parts store like it and ask them to run a OBD 2 system test (it's free), this will retrieve the trouble code(s), post the code(s) back on this thread and I will explain what it will take to repair.
