I need help!
I recently purchased some land so I got my parents old mower from the barn after not being used for maybe 6 years. So I knew I had some replacing to do. This mower cranks cranks cranks but does not turn over or start. It did start with a single shot of starting fluid. This is what I have replaced any ideas please adviseZ thanks in advance.

carburetor
Oil/filter
Ignition switch
Pto switch
Front wire harness ( mice chew through old one)
Battery
Starting selenoid
Fuil filter
Fuel pump.

Since it fired with a shot of fluid, it is not getting fuel in the engine. Start looking at the fuel system.
 
I’m going to replace the fuel lines but other than that everything is new. Carb had gas in it when I rechecked the selenoid.
 
Where did you spray the starter fluid? Into the air intake behind the air filter, or through the spark plug hole?

does the fuel; line connect to the center nipple on a different level then the other two?

i had one made me scratch my head trying to figure out why 3 difference pulse pumps and none pumped gas, so i went to the basics and checked where the lines went and found the issue, its so often im used to putting it back the way i found it, yet this mower, someone put the lines in the wrong place before i got to work on it

I understand. Why would the tank be full and it not go through? What would I clean. I feel like I used a wire to go through a lot little holes

Did you replace the fuel lines? Is fuel actually coming out of the tank? Are the new fuel pump hoses / lines hooked up right? Is it pumping fuel to the carb? If the answer is yes to all those questions....the fuel delivery problem lies in the carb!
