Terminals are correct. I did get it to turn over by applying power to the smaller wire on the starter. It didn't start but atleast it's something.

So I changed out the battery and I have lost all power. The previous battery was not turning the mower over and I know this battery is good. But now I have no power at all. I even tried to jump both the solenoid and the starter and it doesn't even get a lil spark. I tried jumper cables to test...

Yeah I almost had a chainsaw but I think a employee had it on hold for them.

So went to my local goodwill that has a separate store done by weight. So as I was leaving a employee was wheeling out a Ryobi 2000 psi electric pressure washer. They told me it had a leak which I figured the pump. So the sticker said 50 but after talking a lil she said I could take it for 15...

Also yes its fine in reverse but after I go in reverse it will go forward with no problem for awhile. That is what's confusing me

I have another mower that runs great. This was a side project as it was free. I wish I could swap the engine into my John Deere l111 as it's a way more powerful engine

so im curious if it is worth the money. it was kept up with but from what i found the rebuild kit is also 400+ dollars. also is there anything else i should look at, if it was a bad pump would going in reverse than forward cause it to run ok for a lil while?

I looked up the model and it's a k66 trans. So from I was told they had done a oil change on the transacle. Its just weird that going into reverse than forward it's fine for awhile. So idk I was already thinking of a rebuild when they told me about it

So here is the issue. The engine is strong but after it is going forward awhile it starts to move slowly this was donated to me by my church as they couldn't figure it out so I'm hoping to get it fixed. Any thoughts on to wear to begin at are appreciated. I also know it has a Kohler engine.

Ill have more info once i get it to my house. Just has me boggled right now...lol

I get i dont have the model but it was a general question. So something maybe similar on various other mowers that had the same issue.im not looking for a exact answer just something in the general direction.

So my church is giving me a scott riding mower. I dont have the model of it yet as someone is going to bring it to me. But wanted to get a headstart on its issue. So it seems that while its running it becomes bogged down. But was told if you put it in reverse and than in forward again it will...

Nm I had a duh moment. I didn't research enough and the second is just a drain plug. So ignore that as I thought it was a adjustment for fuel.

The pump seems to be working from what I have seen. Going to test it with the gun on tomorrow as it was missing the adapter to attach the gun to the hose.
