what others wrote. All the mulching mowers I ever owned needed a mulching plug. Unfortunately they seem to bring a small fortune even...

Some of those mowers used to come with a mulch plug that inserted into the hole under the flap when not bagging.

normally on a gear like that, I would use a wire brush on a drill to go round and round the shaft so there is no rust. Then I would use...

take your time and don't fire the parts cannon without going thru the things that have been mentioned.

So, if you haven't done it yet, pull fuel line off the carb, and drain into a jar. Drain a couple of inches, and let it sit, and see if...

there might be a little water in the fuel would be my first guess. A wiring fault as my second guess, or debris in the fuel tank my...
