Hi all, I have a Mountfield ride on mower with a Stiga ST250es engine.
starts and runs fine when cold but it it stops for any reason if I try and restart it is locked solid. The starter cable gets very hot while trying to start hot so is drawing a lot of current.
after advise I have fitted a new starter motor but the fault is just the same.
have tried direct power to the starter as well but still locked.
if I wait 5 minutes it then starts ok off the key
any ideas please as running out of things to try
Thanks
