The coil could be bad since you've already replaced the sparkplug. Disconnect the kill wire to see if it's grounding out. Test for spark too.

What engine is this for???

It is probably a clogged carburetor or no spark. Clean carb and test for spark. Does it run for a little bit with a little bit of gas poured into the carb?

Reminds me of a diesel with a glowplug buzzer

You should.

Did it look more durable?

Yes, sometimes have been able to bypass the broken compression release with a new, stronger battery. It won't fix the broken camshaft though.

Welcome aboard.

I gave my Input, take it or leave it 🙃 I'm out.

Riding mowers are a lot better.

I always adjust Phillips when the one valve is fully open end of the other is closed and loose. Adjust the loose one, then turn over and adjust the others. When you're all done, crank the engine a few times, and check the gap again, this "breaks in the gap". Adjust again if needed. Pro tip: I...

I do, I'm sorry for the confusion

OP should make a poll, Kohler, or Rehlko, which one would you buy?

I guess

They don't call them "Breaks and scrapem'" for nothing. If they break, scrap them, because they are not worth fixing because they will just break again.🤦🏼‍♂️

What do you think?

I wish they didn't make it all these parts in China and with weak materials. I wish they still made engines that are designed to last more than 10 years, like the old Briggs opposed/boxer twin engines. Those were solid engines.👌🏼

Spray some WD-40 on mower deck mounting linkages, they tend to squeak.

Well thats a bit drastic, dont you think? We are mortal, so we all make mistakes. Nobody ever wanted to give wrong info intentionally. We will miss you Startech.

Ditto, blown head gasket, although, sometimes i see that wispy smoke on engines with good head gaskets, specifically briggs vtwins. Anyway, I'm not sure that that engine is supposed to have a fuel pump, usually those singles dont.

What engine is on the riding mower? We need the model number off the engine shroud. You have fuel, and compression which leaves air, spark, and timing. I would lean towards timing, so check the flywheel key and the valves. I bet the flywheel key is sheared. Maybe the valves came loose? I would...
