I have a Bolens by MTD 15.5-HP Manual 38" Cut Lawn Tractor
and it ran well earlier today but now cannot get it to start. I have tried new battery, checked fuse its fine, cleaned the filter but nothing seems to get it to run but turns over crank fine..
Reason my ride on mower died to begin with is the following: I hit the reverse button with break/clutch in but forgot to switch the gear to reverse from forward.. Once I started releasing break/clutch i heard a loud popping sound like a shotgun a few times and then the mower died (has not started since)
After pulling hood and watching it spin and visualizing the motor area when I'm attempting to start right after it pops I see a micro spark of electricity near a pipe up front. Down on my luck can't afford to buy a push lawnmower yet this one.. Any ideas?
