Good day all! I am currently working on a Husqvarna YTH24V48 with Briggs Intek 724cc 24.0 hp. Question is about the park brake switch. With brake pedal depressed it starts and runs perfectly. Blades engage with PTO. Issue is that as soon as brake is released, the engine dies. I ruled out seat...

2014 Hustler w/ FX691V. After replacing the longblock and reusing the fuel system, charging, exhaust etc. I developed an issue with cold starts. I didn't realize it immediately b/c I fully expected to use starting fluid on the first start. When using the mower daily the issue dues not appear...

BR800 blower, runs perfectly but can not shut off with kill switch. I used ohm meter to verify both the yellow and black wires in the handle have continuity. I also cleaned the contact point on the kill wire inside the handle. I suspected bad ground b/c before cleaning the contact point there...

I'm working on a Kohler Kt735-3051 on a 2016 Hustler Raptor 52". Previous owner said the engine "wasn't getting fire", so he took the top off of the engine and left it outside under a tarp. The stator and coils are completely rusted so I ordered new ones from Amazon. The original stator has 2...

FR691 with 155 hours. Starts and runs perfectly for about 15 mins then starts missing really badly. New plugs, fuel and air filter. Adding a little choke helps it smooth out but not 100%. Steering arms in and out seems to make no difference, neither does turning off PTO, so I'm thinking fuel...

Hello all, I'm working on an old (2009) Bad Boy Pro 27 with a Kohler 27 hp. I did a longblock swap using a used longblock and the original accessories including charging system etc. Mower preformed perfectly for several hours then began blowing the main fuse. I traced the issue back to the...

Troubleshooting a no spark issue. Engine spins over. No spark. Both coils test good, checked for sheared crankshaft key, tried a known good voltage reg / rectifier, new plugs. One thing that I do NOT know on Bad Boy / Kohler is which (if any) safety switch will allow the engine to crank but cut...

I recently swapped out a longblock SV840 on a BadBoy 60" Pro 27 ZT. Runs perfectly except it stalls immediately upon engaging the deck. BUT only for the first few minutes. After about 5-10 minutes of running, it operates flawlessly. I checked voltage when engaging PTO, no significant voltage...

Just completed a longblock swap. Have everything back together. Engine started with a shot of starting fluid. Ran perfectly, smooth idle, smooth at 50% (didn't try to run at wot yet). Shut it down and restarted several times perfectly. Let it set about an hour now will not start. Replaced carb...

Trying to sort a charging issue on Ariens Max Zoom 60 / Kohler Courage Pro 25. Just acquired used. Dead battery. Former owner said the blades quit the the engine died. I assumed bad battery. Partially correct, battery would not take charge from charger. Replaced, started, ran great. Shut off...

Please forgive me if this is a stupid or redundant post. I have replaced a couple of FX850V engines because they eventually used so much oil. This FX691 is really just starting to get bad. (It has 1375 hrs) My question: is it possible to re-ring this engine by just removing the heads and bottom...

I am going to replace the Kawasaki engine on an Exmark Pioneer E series 48" that I bought from a very dishonest POS online. It's a long story but regardless, he posted a pic of the spec tag which showed an FX 730V-CS12. The engine is actually FR651V (according to the air filter cover) and locked...

Can anyone tell me or point to a source that lists the actual differences in the current iterations of the 850V? I'm particularly interested in is it feasible to change the charging system from a S00 from 15 amp to 26 amp to replace a CS12 engine and is how difficult to switch an EFI over to...

I am hoping for advice from a seasoned Kawasaki engine tech. Here's what I have: a 9 year old Hustler Super Z that has had several parts replaced, good pumps and motors, mows great but has right at 2000 hrs on the Kaw FX850V-CS12 and is using oil. From personal experience, this is the beginning...
