MTD EXPERIENCE, 12.5 HP BRIGGS WOULDN'T START TODAY

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

My $20.oo riding mower wouldn't start . Thought I had a stuck valve.
Turned out to be much easier than that, but the head bolts were loose and need attention anyway. So it was good that I looked into it.

    That is an I/C Briggs and Stratton..., can not kill those easily !!! Best Engine ever made as far as I can see. That Engine I/C Series was the Best Line that B&S came out with..., my opinion!

    Have you checked to see if your starter motor is secure, & not loose on the engine ? if it is take the covers off so you can see the gear on the starter, sometimes they go bad also. Let me know if this isn't the problem and we'll look deeper into figuring it out for you. Good luck

    No, I wasn't pushing the pedal down, so the belts are trying to turn the deck & tranny also causing to much drag. You can see it here. Tufdog's a Goof, MTD problems revealed kzread.info/dash/bejne/hZlhx5mels3VcbA.html Thanks & good luck,
