Help,
I have a craftsman mower model No 917.259547 with a kohler 15.5 hp engine model No CV155. The problem is I went to start the engine but the starter was not working. Charged battery nothing. Got multimeter out and found no voltage at starter. After further testing, starter solenoid was not passing the voltage. Replace starter solenoid. Starter engaged but engine would not turn over. Tried turning engine at crank but would not move. Removed spark plug and engine still would not turn. After removing top cover of engine to look at things I grab the flywheel and I could turn engine. Attempted to start engine and it started right up. Put everything back together and guess what, engine would not turn over. Help
