My job involves cleaning up bank-foreclosed properties after the tenants have vacated. One of the perks is I get to keep pretty much anything I find (and I have found some wild stuff!), after reasonable (and documented) attempts have been made to contact the previous owners. At a rural property I worked recently, I discovered a 2003 John Deere L120 lawn tractor abandoned in a shed. I jumped the battery and was able to drive it onto my trailer after re-inflating the tires. Once back at my house, it refused to start even after jumping so I manhandled it into my workshed.
To date, this is what I have done to it:
replaced battery
removed and cleaned fuel tank (was full of dirt and other debris)
flushed/replaced the fuel lines
replaced fuel pump
replaced spark plug
changed oil and filter
replaced fuel filter
replaced air filter
removed and cleaned carberator.
Now it will crank but will not start. The motor spins but won't engage. I am thinking it may be the fuel solenoid, but not sure. The engine is a B&S Model 331877 0241 B1 Code 11093020 Any suggestions? Thanks!
