    Craftsman 917271121 dead

    Hi all. I was attempting to hook up the seat kill switch and now it's dead. Nothing . The kill switch wires were cut, so the mower would stay running while off the seat. I took a set of jumper wires with alligator clips and used them to go from the wires to the seat switch. It started up, then...

    Kohler CV16s stator replacement

    Hi all. I'm trying to replace my stator and voltage regulator. Does it matter which way the wires go on the regulator from the stator, and then from the regulator to the wiring harness? The stator is not labeled , only the regulator is labeled, AC, B+, and AC. Thanks

    Craftsman lt1000 burned wires

    Hi all. I have an older lt1000, model 917271121. I believe it's a 1997. It has a Kohler cv16s engine. It cut off abruptly yesterday and I noticed a few burned wires. One has burned so bad it came out of the connector. I'm thinking something has shorted to ground. Not sure where to start. Any...

    Craftsman 917271121 no spark

    Hi. I've got no spark on my mower. I've tested the coil - I think I did it right. I got a test light, put one side on positive battery, the other side on the spark plug wire, and it did not light. Does this mean the coil is bad? Basically the spark plug wire is not grounded?

    solenoid on carburetor

    Hi All, I have a 1997 Craftsman 917271121 mower. The Anti-afterfire solenoid is failing. ( I think that's what it's called). Is that a universal part? or is it model specific? Couldn't find an exact part. Thanks.

    chute removal, yes or no

    Hi All, I have an older craftsman riding mower, 42 inch cut. I have replaced the blades with mulching blades and installed a cover over the chute. The manual states that the plastic chute should never be removed. Is there a reason for this? I have a smaller yard and it just gets in the way.

    snapper sr1433 purchase questions

    Hi all. I am looking to buy a Snapper sr1433. I've seen a few listed locally. One of them has a 12.5 hp briggs motor. All the other information I found online said that the sr1433 mowers had either a Kohler 14.5, or a Briggs 14.5. I cannot find anything on them being sold with a 12.5hp Briggs...
