What cause your riding mower to idle up and down when am mowering?

When mowing it will idle up and down because of the amount and thickness of grass you are cutting. This is because the blades will struggle cutting thick grass so the engine needs more revs to keep the blades running at a constant speed and that is also why your mower may slow down because it has used the majority of revs to cut the grass and their are not many revs left to keep the wheels spinning
The up and down revving could also be caused by a dirty/clogged air filter.

Buying the Best Riding Mowers?
Riding mowers can make an otherwise tedious job easy and even fun. However, before investing in a riding mower make sure that your lawn is large enough for it. A push mower makes sense up to a certain area. Then, sit down on the lawn mowers and stay there for a while. Do you notice any discomfort in parts of your body? If so, note it and then sit down on the next one. Are there any differences? Is it more comfortable? After a while, you should have found the best riding mower and, hopefully, the price is right too.
