If one of these is not working as it should then the riding mower won’t start. 1st and 2nd link shows valve adj. There are probably more safety interlocks than just the seat switch, and one of them could be shorting out the system.
Once A Detector Activates A Safety Function, Your Mower Won’t Work As Usual.
If the engine still refuses to start, you will need to check for compression by removing the spark plug and placing a thumb over the spark plug hole as though you wanted to stop compression from escaping out the hole. A correct valve adjustment or sticking compression release causes too much compression in engine not allowing starter to turn engine over and which may often give a few chugs and starter just clicks. The main ones to check are the brake pedal switch, blade switch, battery connection, weight sensor (to make sure a driver is sitting before the mower works).
Fuel Is Always At The Top Of The Checklist.
Someone told me they thought i needed to. Air intake, spark, and gas. My craftsman riding mower will not start but is turning over good it was running today and i turned the blades off to get off it to pick something up and left it running got back on and engaged the blades and then it died and now wont start.
Had This Problem Before (6 Months Ago), So I Exchanged The Solenoid, Starter And Battery (Not All At Once),.
Get some carb cleaner, or gasoline and remove the air filter, dump about a tablespoon or a little more into the intake, try to start it, if it starts and dies see #1, if it doesn't start see #2. And 3rd link gives the various small engine valve. There are gas vapors when the air filter is removed and the engine cranked.
