Hey

My 320 Lawn Tractor has the FD590V Kawasaki engine.

What make a spark plug on one side flood out with gasoline? It starts running rough and all I have found when I took both plugs out was that one (left side) was flooded with raw gasoline. Thanks

The right side plug is the one giving trouble. so you would say replace that coil?

With an insulated pair of plyers Remove the spark plug wire that you think is working while it is running. If mower dies then replace the other coil.

I will be replacing the bad coil soon. I will let you know how it turns out. Won't be long before the grass cutting will start.

Good to hear, that's a real John Deere you have there. And do I see a late 80s Mustang GT in the background? Soon to be the ultimate vintage hot rod some day.
