Also the mower appears to be a Craftsman model if I seeing the colors right. If so check the fuel line at the operator tower as they are usually fed through the frame and tend to kink once the fuel line softens due to the severe bends.

Operator tower? We're still talking about a mower, right? Or the space shuttle? lol

That's what they call the enclosure for the steering wheel and other operator controls. It is also sometimes called the operator station. But they call it something else in the Aussie back country like a Wombat hut.

The next time I get on my mower, I'm gonna plug in "Ground control to Major Tom" to the bluetooth ear buds.

Sigh. Replaced fuel pump , carb, spark plug and fuel filter. Engine just turns and turns. Getting fuel to carb now. Starter fluid does nothing.


Pain in the butt. I can only work on it Sundays.

Valves and timing would be my next step I guess?

Normally w would call it a turret or tower
Long time ago worked out Americans did not understand that term.

Valves can't be adjusted on this like my other. Cleaned the ignition coil, was gunked up. Spark went from orange to light blue.


Lost here. Not sure what to try.
