    Kawi FH541 17hp governor does not go back to idle speed when turned off

    Scag Wildcat 52 - Starter won't crank

    PROBLEM SOLVED! It runs again. I remembered a sort of similar problem on an outboard motor, when I went to start it, the starter would hesitate, turn slowly for one second then it would turn fast, run normal. It occurred to me that the boat ground cable was a smaller size than the positive...

    Wildcat Push Arm Rod End Ball Joint Setting

    My Scag Wildcat parts manual shows the Push Arm as 461516. The parts manual for the SSZ mower above shows its Push Arm as 46460. I found that a Scag ad on Amazon for the Wildcat Push Arm 461516 also replaces the 46460 Push Arm that goes on the SSZ. So, I am just going to set my push arms at 15...

    Wildcat Push Arm Rod End Ball Joint Setting

    Below is a manual for a different mower, its push arm is different part#, but this manual shows the push arm adjustment, while the Wildcat owners manual does not. Anyone know what the push arm length adjustment should be for a 2007 Wildcat?
