I am a former ASE-certified auto mechanic. I know my way around engines, but this one has me stumped. The lawnmower stopped while mowing the lawn.
This is what I have done or checked:
I have gas, fuel pump works, carburetor solenoid works, air filter, and gas filters are clean, installed a new battery, a new EUC, both sparkplugs fire and shorting the seat safety device didn't work. The plugs are dry, but the machine will start with starting fluid. Disconnecting the black kill wire didn't work. All fuses work.
In the past, I have jump-started the lawnmower and recently discovered that will blow the ECU, so I replaced it. Is there anything else jump-starting the lawnmower will kill?
What can I do or check next?
