Years ago Dad gave me his MTD 660/679 series lawn tractor, and it's done well with a few minor repairs here and there. On Saturday, I started it up and left it idling a minute while I walked away for a moment. Suddenly I heard a loud metallic 'pang'; even my wife heard it inside the house; and it stopped running. Now, when you turn the key, it's like the flywheel responds to the battery easily, but there's no umph from the engine. I'm not sure what to check, what to take apart, or whether to look for a used mower on craigslist. Any ideas?
