    mtd yardman blade engage.

    Its item 24 on this diagram. Located behind the direction control on the right side of the transaxle https://www.partstree.com/models/13ax614g701-yard-man-lawn-tractor-2004/drive-controls-wheels-rear-2/ Also check the wire for bad spots that could be grounding out

    Grinding noise or metal sound when blade engaged

    My guess would be either there is a bad/burnt spot in the belt which is narrower than the rest of the belt, or something stuck in the groove of one of the spindle V pulleys.

    mtd yardman blade engage.

    From the parts diagram this mower has the straight keyswitch with no RIO override. owners manual states will kill the engine if put in reverse with the deck engaged or while trying to engage the deck while in reverse.

    mtd yardman blade engage.

    Check the reverse switch and wiring. I would bet that the system is thinking the mower is in reverse when in neutral.

    Kohler Courage SV-601 Does this sound like a knocking rod/other engine problem, or has it always sounded like this???

    Check motor mount bolts. The shaking and knocking sound is typical at startup and shutdown and in some cases when the deck is engaged if the 4 mounting bolts are loose.

    422707-121401 sump gasket

    there should be a total of 7 bolts/studs holding the sump on. Check down those deep hole above and below the crankshaft. I think you are missing a fastener which is holding the sump on.

    engine surges when throttle below half way

    Not likely governor. More likely new carb not acting correctly. But being a Courage single don't overlook the gasket behind the black plastic carb isolator plate. That gasket can slip in some cases or tear causing an air leak.

    Briggs and Stratton compression release versus valve clearance adjustment

    Don't confuse metric clearance with imperial clearance. He set the valves at .10 and .15mm which is roughly .004 to .005 inch.

    2010 Murray Electrical issue

    May want to try a test light on that white wire to see if it will light a light. Just because a meter shows 12 volts doesn't mean it will carry enough current to engage the solenoid.

    This maybe the closest you will find a diagram from MTD/SBD in some cases. But you can go find a similar Troybilt, Cub Cadet, Etc with the same pedal configuration as your mower at a box store and have a look under he mower., and doesn't have to be exact same model, because MTD uses the same...

    One coil or both???

    In some cases when 1 coil fails the other one is also going out, and in some cases with advance in part supercessions, a new coil can actually overload the old coil, and burn it out.

    no spark issue, inteck 12.5hp won't start

    Spark with the kill wire disconnected proves the coil is fine, and it is not failing. So the issue is someplace between where it connects to the coil and the wiring in the mower. Check to make sure the kill wire hasn't rubbed through some place on the engine metal. If that is good then the...

    Rear Engine Mowers

    Don't focus so much on horsepower because unless you are mowing foot tall grass it will never be an issue. Rear engine riders have more weight concentrated over the rear drive tires which can lead to more traction that would be a concern on slopes. The thing to watch is if very steep will be...

    no spark issue, inteck 12.5hp won't start

    With that wire disconnected you cannot shutoff the engine, without grounding that terminal or choking the engine. On some engines the fuel solenoid on the carb will starve the engine of fuel and kill it but may take a few seconds in some cases.

    Engine shakes while engaging blades

    Seems like the deck belt is shaking really bad. Check the V pulleys for something stuck in the groove, or check the deck belt for an area that looks like it has burnt to a narrow area, or a bent pulley. Head gasket failure usually results in oil consumption and smoking out the muffler from...

    Could be that gasket but don't overlook the float valve 698537 and be careful and don't drop the jet out of the white plastic emulsion tube. They like to fall out when the white part is turned upside down, and people don't realize it is missing until it floods at full throttle. The...

    Engine shakes while engaging blades

    It will be find to run the deck without blades, But I would start by making sure the motor mount bolts are tight. only takes 1/8 turn loose to allow the motor to wobble on the frame. Normallly occurs when the engine is started, when the engine is shut down, and when the engine is subject to...

    MTD Mower: no room to install a fuel shutoff valve. Any suggestions?

    The problem isn't the carb the problem is the absolutely junk fuel. Since Briggs came out with this engine in 2015 the biggest issue with this engine not starting is people trying to use fuel that isn't up to the standard. Fuel that will start and run in every other piece of equipment you...

    Briggs Carburetor Differences

    According to Briggs dealer distribution the 796608 is still the valid number without being superceded. And the 591137 is also a valid non superceded part number so they do not interchange with each other. What is the model type and code of your Briggs engine so we can determine which carb you...

    Have you checked to make sure there isn't gas in the float making it sink and not stop fuel flow at the float needle. Floats on occasion leak and fill with gas.

    Blinking oil light rant

    I am surprised that this hasn't been noticed before. This isn't exactly a new mower. I think there was a 3rd party involved. Basically a hired hand was using the mower and notice the oil light on, and the owner didn't pay enough attention to see the change oil display.

    New Fuel Pump Confusion

    That is how they are supposed to work. The idea is to allow tank venting to remove the vacuum created by fuel leaving the tank, to allow vapor recovery so that it can be burned, and prevent fuel spillage if the mower tips over. Most of the time they never seem to work correctly. I was just...

    Blinking oil light rant

    New Fuel Pump Confusion

    The rollover check valve is a 2 way valve and is only supposed to stop venting when turned upside down. So the non venting fuel cap wasn't suppose to vent. You have a check valve issue not a fuel cap issue.
  42. ILENGINE

    New Fuel Pump Confusion

    I agree. It sounds like the rollover vent valve is not working because if this mower has the vapor recovery line connected to the air filter housing then the fuel cap not venting wasn't the issue because the fuel cap wasn't vented to start with. Direct atmospheric vented fuel caps were EPA...
