RE: Engine problems...

I noticed you said you had been "taxiing around the yard a lot." If your yard is paved , no problem. But if your yard is dirt (maybe dusty dirt), you may be ingesting dust into your engine. I'm not saying that this is your problem, just that it is not a good idea to get dirt sucked into your engine. Your engine will run better, and last longer if you taxi on the lawn. Didn't mean for this to sound like a lecture, just didn't know if you were aware of potential damage by dust. Good luck with your engine.
