    Yes. Your replies are there. Thanks. Carb solenoid has 12v in run, will check for 12v in start too. Fuel pump is new Pickup, filter and all lines are not blocked or clogged in any way. Thus, I suspect no vacuum from crankcase. Too hot still, to check. But will post back when I do.

    No oil in the hose from crankcase at all. i changed it for a new hose as the new fuel pump inlet was in a different spot and hose wouldn’t reach. i will double check that I get 12v at solenoid when engine is cranking as well as when in start position. Wont have a chance to check until tomorrow...

    Yeah...It seems I'm left with this being the issue through the process of elimination. I made sure oil filter and oil fill cap were tight so no leaks there. I still haven't checked with compression tester but I don't feel any noticeable suction when I cover the hose from crankcase with my thumb...

    Thanks for the reply. Yes, new carb came with new fuel solenoid attached. There is no fuel, other than in the gas tank. No matter what, the fuel is not evenbeing drawn into the the fuel pickup tube in gas tank. My next attempt will be to fill every line and the fuel pump with gas… -Tank to Fuel...

    I tried cropping the pictures to see if that works. Hopefully the relevant items are still in photos.

    I checked the bullet connector to the fuel solenoid and it clicks and registers 12v when I turn the key to ON position. There is another connection on the opposite side of carb where the single wire attaches with a spade connector from above. The wire is green and inside a black sheath and it...

    I will take and post some pictures of what everything looks like later today.

    Sorry, I typed the wrong info above re: the fuel pump. Both the fuel in and fuel out are in the middle portion of the block and the input to diaphragm from crankcase is on top 1/3 section.

    Thanks for the electrical wiring diagram link. I will go over it later tonight. I replaced the fuel pump (Aluminum Block type) with one that looks almost identical. The differences being the in and out connections in relation to the crankcase, carb and fuel in. As for the actual ports, they...

    Either way, I should still hear some sort of click from the carb area when I turn key to start/run position..correct? I will check that first

    Kohler Command V-twin. Cranks but no-start.

    The pick-up tube is clear. I blew threw it before trying to draw fuel elsewhere. I will start by checking the electrical/fuses/connections tomorrow and report back. I don't recall any wire w/ring to connect on top of carb when I originally disconnected. Just the single wire w/bullet connector...

    Kohler Command V-twin. Cranks but no-start.

    No, not getting any fuel from pump when cranking. I don't hear any clicking and I'm not sure where the fuel solenoid is on the carb. Is that controlled by the electrical wire that I disconnected/reconnected when replacing the carb? Should I be checking a fuse somewhere since I'm not hearing any...

    Kohler Command V-twin. Cranks but no-start.

    I have a mid-90's Woods 6200 zero turn that has run fine since I bought it three years ago. After sitting all winter, it refused to start this spring. I have pretty much run out of ideas as to what to check/replace next. Symptoms haven't changed from when I started troubleshooting and replacing...
