Bought a 628d about 5 yrs ago. After a new set of blades and a deck belt its been a pretty good machine. Mowing some roughage out near my fence line the darn thing just quits as if id shut the engine off with the key. Went back and brought zome more fuel knowing it should have had plenty. As expected it only took 2 gallons. She wouldstart and run breifly, but when I realeased the brake the engine died. Went and go my skidsteer and dragged it out of the woods to my shop. Checked all the fuel line, in-line filter, fuel pump and replaced main fuel filter. Still no wanna run. Soon as I release the brake, she dies. Then I tried putting a ziptie on the switch to hold it closed when I released the brake. That let the engine run anyway. So, im thinking I can at least cut some grass even if I cant open that switch. Wrong! As soon as I flipped the switch to activate hyddraulic moter on the deck, bingo, it kills the engine. Ive pretty well deactivated most of the safty switches that govt reqiures on stuff these days so now I'm out of ideas as to how I'll get the old beast running again. There are a couple of relays under the control panel but I dont know what they control or how to check them. Anybody got any ideas?I'd appreciate any input thanks
