Mate I have the same mower. But it has a after market engine in it Briggs and stratton 13hp. But the fuel line was running under the fuel tank around the front of the engine under the exhaust and up to the carby and I was having trouble in summer with the fuel over heating and starting to miss all the time.So I ran it around the back of the engine in front of the dash and it has been good ever since. Hope this helps...
