    A John Deere link (don't recall which thread) took me to a russian JD manual site - that looked like an authentic JD manual site !:~\

    I forgot to ask you "where to find that manual for $39" ? I wouldn't mind if it's an older one, as our GT225 is a 2003. Thanks.

    GT225 w/ Kohler CV15S engine - starts ok; runs & mows great, doesn't sputter or die; but once turned off...won't restart. FIXED !=))

    . . of the spam poster at #38 ? How do those pestilent robot-spams typically land willy-nilly throughout the www of forums &c?

    Thanks for that info ;-) I've been considering returning our 3.2L for a 6L that's selling for only $21 more. Or, as mentioned abv, returning for refund since we'd probably rarely use it.

    My much better half says she has FIVE old ones that she's been meaning to sell in garages sales! 🤪 I think a few are from her mother & aunt. I'll have to commandeer one !;-)

    Thanks for that yard sale/used crock pot idea! I may just try that this winter !;-) We considering returning the ultrasonic cleaner, even though it did make the Mrs's jewelry really sparkle, we'd probably rarely use it.

    That was it! The magneto ignition module! Even though the existing one looked fine & w/good .010 gap, and good kill wire & spark wire.... as soon as I replaced it with a new magneto ignition module, (ehem, in a rather Chevy Chase-esque 'Sparky' sort of way :~\ ), the GT225 fires right up every...

    Our mower is 2003 GT225. Sorry to hear that you can't tell me. :rolleyes: :unsure: Yeah, that's why I sashayed quick like outta there, back-spacing ferociously while cursing the russkies! Then immediately called bank, cancelled card &c.

    CV15S start=sputtering, backfire, surging. Fuel off=runs great then dies (obviousy)

    Not trying to be disrespectful here but you sure don't know whatever the hell you think you're talking about. I've already done several of the "troubleshooting procedures", as well as replaced entire engines. So "from the sound of it"....your reading skills and assumption abilities are "next to...

    X320 Won't start

    I'm not one qualified to give advice, but until the pro's post their advice here, which I'm sure will help get you going, in the interim, I'll just mention that I have read similar threads of similar issues, and as I recall, it was typically either the fuse for the ignition switch and/or for the...

    Thanks very much, slomo !;-) That's exactly what I figured, after reading your post(s). Really appreciate your kind help & advise !

    CV15S start=sputtering, backfire, surging. Fuel off=runs great then dies (obviousy)

    Copy that. I haven't done anything yet. It fired right up yesterday like it was brand new; ran beautifully, not even a sputter, seemingly, as I mentioned above, even better than when it was new. But then, as before, it wouldn't start after I shut it off to blow all the grass off before backing...

    CV15S start=sputtering, backfire, surging. Fuel off=runs great then dies (obviousy)

    It's starting fine when cold; runs super great, never even sputters, in fact, it seems to run better now than when it was brand new! All it's doing.... is not restarting after being shut-off and while still warm. So hardly a need to take it to a service facility, until after I've done several of...

    Thank you, StarTech !;-) I guess that's something I'll have to skip then, as I don't have a 'pressure/vac tester', nor do I have a 'pressure line', but only a Makita 3 Gal compressor these days, although it does dial down very accurately to low pressures. And I only have the standard 3/8" air...
