If you are engaging and disengaging the deck a lot that can eat the brakes. But typically the one on the engagement arm item 63 is not usually the problem. The one on the other blade spindle item 60 will either get installed incorrectly and flipped around backwards or the rod item.64 will...

Most likely not cost effective rebuild unless you get really really lucky and nothing inside the engine is damaged Most likely 99.9% chance will require replacement engine. And your response is typical of people that never realize that they are only running on one cylinder. People just...

That is OK, Glad I could assist. What is really bad is when MTD will put a letter on a diagram, and the corresponding letter is on another diagram.

Looks like 491255 label kit which is NLA. No longer available

Your cut off part of your diagram. G is next to the pedal at the bottom of the same but complete diagram https://www.partstree.com/models/13ag601h729-yard-machines-lawn-tractor-2005-home-depot/drive-1/

Working on a Command CV730 and while doing the carb kit discovered that it also need the accelerator kit. The carb repair kit is $68 and the accelerator pump kit is $104. Can get a complete carb assy plus gaskets for $35. For $35 worth ordering just to steal the parts off of to repair the...

Is the engine running at idle or mid throttle or full throttle. That info would assist in direction of problem. Are you certain the throttle was installed incorrectly. If the carb has been removed are the carb linkages installed correctly. Will the engine change speed of your manually...

Totally agree. I am not buying the rust story unless those pulleys are deep pitted with rust.

Same for me when they were in Jasper. Now with them in Tennessee and Fedex 2-3 days is now normal. Same thing happened with Power distributors going to Fedex this year when from next day out of Columbus to 2 days out of Iowa and now 2-3 days with Fedex from Iowa. And to make it worse PD...

Partially blocking the intake and running fine indicates a fuel delivery issue. So either the new Honda carb has a problem or you have an air leak between the carb at the intake manifold, or an air leak at the manifold to cylinder interface.

That is the Digital Spark Advance Module or DSAM for short. It controls spark timing and advancement. When it fails can cause a no spark issue. When doing the DSAI conversion that box can be removed and tossed in the trash because the conversion doesn't use it.

Here is one possible place to get the DSAI system if you need that setup https://www.amazon.com/Kohler-12-707-01-S-Equipment-Ignition-Manufacturer/dp/B00TD633W4

Little more complicated than that. On his engine he either has the DSAM which supplies 12 volts to the coils, as well as impulse controls and has 2 terminals. The DSAI conversion also supplies 12 volts to the coils and has 3 terminals. You can't just unplug them and make it work like the...

And customers wonder why it takes so long to get their equipment looked at or repaired, And the tech is wondering why they don't get anything done.

If that is the correct spec then that is a DSAM engine so may need the 12 707 01-S DSAI conversion.

Well the ATV had the main jet fall out of the carb so that was an easy fix. The Troybilt carb work went fine and was returned to the customer. The Kohler 25 with the blown head gasket has had the gaskets replaced but is running rich and dumping fuel into the oil, so doing a carb repair on it...

The spec number along with the engine model number would be helpful so we can look up the correct engine. Also if this has the single wire coil unplug it and crank the engine. No spark then bad coil or plug. the reason I ask is some of the CV16 has smart spark ignition on them.

That is not the engine model number. The engine model most likely is stamped into the valve cover Should say model, type and code above the information. And if this is a single cylinder Intek engine then one or both of the following has happened. the valves are out of adjustment preventing...

It looks like your spring has a B* next to it on this diagram. https://www.partstree.com/models/ltx-1842-13ap609g063-troy-bilt-42-lawn-tractor-2003/pto-drive-battery-frame-components-6/ Which then corresponds with the B* on this diagram...

Might need shimmed up slightly, and looks like the idler arm original hole was the left hole.

Do you have a MIL light on when this happens. That would give some direction to the problem. But sounds like the issue starts when it goes into closed loop. Disconnect the O2 sensor and then start it and see what happens.

I suspect there is a ACR issue not releasing compression to crank the engine. Have replaced the ACR on the camshaft a couple times, but ends up being a temporary fix. Have also had to replace the cam gear in conjunctio with the ACR but even that can still result in intermittent issues.

And you are lucky that the batteries haven't been obsoleted forcing you to purchase a new mower.

Not surprised at all. Sometimes if you look at regular motor oil. The quart bottles are cheaper than the 5 quart jug. And I have even found cases where quart bottles were cheaper than 55 gallon drums.

Depending on brand of tranny used parts may not be available, and either way would require disassembly of the tranny to remove and replace the axle.

People on this site have used them with issues. Parts Direct will bill your credit card at time of order even if the part is not in stock and backordered, but the part will show in stock on the website. Their site has been goofy since Sears shutdown, so I don't know if I would trust them other...

I wouldn't be afraid to throw another new spark plug in and see what happens. Your no start on starting fluid hints to a lose of spark. So either spark plug or ignition module is doing a heat soak failure type scenario.

The 25 098 11-s supercedes to 25 098 20-S which supercedes to 25 098 21-s which brings us to the current 25 098 24-S

I agree with your assessment. Have a Kubota D902 in a Ditch Witch Mini skid that is a pain to start cold below 40 degrees. I take that back. Fires easily with glow plug but because of the hydraulics kills the engine. The Kubota owners manual says to start at half throttle, which I hate...

Tecumseh basically went belly up after the bankruptcy and sales of Murray since Murray was the largest user of Tecumseh engines. Tecumseh was purchased/taken over by an investment group. That same group has control of LCT engines and the combined name for both is Lauson engine, which was the...

Tecumseh went from the 4 bolt system to the 2 bolt in the early 2000's seems like there was a bulletin discussing it.

I would recommend putting a small amount of gas into the intake and see if it fires and runs on it, but there is also a chance that it flooded out, and adding gas could make it worse or give a false symptom leading down a non needed rabbit hole. Try cranking it first without the choke on and...

You are getting 6-7 volts because the starter is shorted which is pulling more amps than the wiring can handle therefore causing a voltage drop. The best way to determine what starter you need is to look up the starter by using the model and specifications numbers from the engine tag. You...

I suspect that the magnets that are supposed to be glued to the outer housing are loose and broken, So probably nothing to loose taking it apart because most likely it is already junk.

I don't think people realize that mowers have at least 3 different manufacturers with their own problems, services, and warranty. Also that the number on the hood is just a series number and can have several different models within that series. And that doesn't take into account the 3rd party...

We need the actual engine model number and Specification number(spec number for short) and engine serial number from the tag on the engine. T2400 doesn't tell us if it is a CV or SV or KT.

Kohler recommends full throttle shutdown due to how their carbs are plumbed. Kohler setup doesn't shutoff the idle circuit of the carb with the fuel solenoid. So idle shutdown allows fuel to be drawn into the engine and unburnt into the muffler increasing the case of afterfire.

Rust not manufacturer issue. But paint in the belt groove can cause all kinds of havoc on belts and should be considered a manufacturing issue, not a defect in quality but in workmanship. But I say the OP either has a belt alignment issue or could be something like welding spatter in a pulley...

Agree Rivets. Could be something as simple as a rough area on a pulley that is filing the belt down. Had a rider years ago that had issues with damaging the belt because of paint that had partially chipped off of the pulley in the groove and was acting like a knife to the belt.

May also want to pop the fuel line loose from the carb and check fuel flow through the fuel line. Should be full flow and if trinkling out means fuel restriction. I have seen the fuel filter that gets inserted into the fuel outlet on the fuel tank collapse and cause flow issues. Also some of...

Next time it stalls try loosening the gas cap and see if it will restart. Also could try putting a small amount of gas into the carb intake and see if it starts and dies or continues to run. Or doesn't start at all. May want to recheck the model number because it is coming back to a 1993...

Can't find any specs that used the solenoid shift starter on the SV735, But was used on one of the SV740 and 3 of the SV730.

Go back and check your spec number you are missing a digit. And Kohler OEM starters normally have the part number on the starter housing.

Looks like the float pin is still in place at the bottom of your picture. That has to come out to remove the float. If the float doesn't come out then the float valve is stuck and will need to be pried out. then you can get to the emulsion tube screws after that.

Most of the courage twins used the non solenoid shift starters. If you are looking to do the conversion to the solenoid shift starter version see this thread https://lawnmowerforum.com/threads/sv740-starter.76195/ Which has the part number for the solenoid shift starter that I used on the...

Lets start with the actual model and serial number from the tag on the mower since P510 really doesn't mean much. Also numbers from the engine may also help.

If they have them they don't even share them with the dealers or service centers.
