Rider starting issues

I agree with SandburRanch, since it worked for me with my Briggs 17.5

That's nice. My suggestion worked for me, too :smile:

Does that mean you DISAGREE with the other suggestions? :wink:

Wouldn't hurt to freshen up the starter, even if that's not it.
 
I had the same issues on a briggs and stratton 14.5 IC quite engine. Everything acted like a starter problem. Interesting tho if I removed the spark plug, the engine would turn over fine. No battery or starter problem there. I got many responses that the valves needed to be adjusted and sure enough that was it.
 
I'd say you have a bad ground problem, 12v @ the starter...with little drop means bad ground. If it were inside the starter the voltage would drop hard to the 9 to 8 volt range. Check the Ground:cool:
