I was able to start my mower on the first crank. I then had to turn it off so i could move something from behind the mower. I went back on it and it will not start. I am not sure of the model number but it has the Briggs 19.5 HP engine with the dual spark plugs.
When I turn the key it attempts to crank and gets loud, but the engine does not start. The battery is about a month old so that cannot be it. at first i thought it was out of gas since the gauge was on E but after filling it, the same thing happened. The motor is not spinning at all and is tough to turn by hand, but will turn with some elbow grease. I did notice that whether the seat is up or sat upon it does the same thing, so i didnt know if it was the safety engine kill or not (recently the seat has been sliding alot and i need to tighten it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
