Got it.

Okay, the only thing I can google for TIA is transient ischemic attack????

Yeah, I discovered I can shut the gas off without getting off the seat.

The mower is running well now. I cleaned the carb and suspect when I altered the solenoid earlier maybe I somehow caused the floats to bind upon reassembly. I still seem to feel some air current near the dipstick tube but the tests for a blown head gasket definitely come up negative. I...

Thank you. will order some now I know a number.

I'm looking for a float bowl gasket for a Kohler KT 730 3046. The carb, I believe, is a Walbro 16-853-19s. Is there a way to find these? Mostly what I'm seeing are full kits and the few that are gaskets only use a part number I can't find for Walbro. I have the number for the carb but not for...

Thank you. Both tests seem negative. I'm working today so I just had a second to check and it is dark underneath my pole barn but I couldn't see any smoke from the dipstick funnel. On the first check, it's the crankcase breather line to the bottom the air cleaner housing, correct? I ran it...

Model 13AQA9TTA10 Cub Kohler spec PS-KT730-3046. Serial 5301707914 I took a gamble getting the unit "as is" but was told I could bring it back within a week if it turned out to be something really serious so I was in a hurry to at least get gas to the main jet. I think the solenoid was okay...

Thank you, I will check. The oil level has checked okay but I remember being surprised how clear it was. I didn't sniff it but will just change it even if I can't smell gas.

Cub Cadet XT1 LT46 with Kohler 7000 series engine. I was fouling plugs really quickly and the engine was stuttering badly. I tried new plugs with no relief. While running, I tried removing the air filter which looked pristine and the mower ran perfectly. It is a mower I got as "non-running AS...

Uncle Buck!! I missed that one the first time around.

Fixed. Shut-off valve in and solenoid plunger nipped. The mower runs good. The solenoid might have been okay because I don't think the solenoid fitting is getting voltage. I guess, for now, if that wiring is compromised I can still function but will explore more tomorrow. The battery is low...

Thanks. Getting wrench and shut-off Monday and will check it out.

I really just wanted to ask the carb question first and maybe start a thread if the solenoid doesn't solve things. I just got a thin enough wrench to get it off. Before I bought the tractor, I confirmed it would fire on starter fluid and continue to run if given an occasional puff but it...

I'm in the same boat with a cub cadet XT1 LT46 I got from Tractor Supply for half price (it had been returned) because it wouldn't run.. I don't think I'll be hijacking the thread because I seem to have the same problem. Specifically, should I be able to hear the carb solenoid click when I turn...

Something tells me I'm not headed for a Lawn Royalty rating. I guess the mower ran out of gas at the exact time I hit the root. I don't remember even thinking it was low and have looked for leaks since realizing it was out. It seems sound. Doh!! At least I'm learning some new procedures.

Thanks, I'll get to it tomorrow

There is no flow at all from the fuel line taken off the carb. Is it looking like I need a fuel pump?

Quick check with the starting fluid shows it will run if continuously given a puff intermittently. Will do the fuel checks next week. Going out of town now.

Okay, thanks. Family issues are interfering right now but I will get to this soon as I can.

Got the flywheel off and key is not deformed or marred. All looks good. Can you think of any other issues that might cause the symptoms?

Okay, I'll look at it tomorrow AM when outside temps are below 80. It's a rider but I guess the principal is the same as long as I can get down to the flywheel. Is it surprising it will crank with starting fluid? The idea that the key sheared makes perfect sense considering how the the blade...

So I hit a root and sank the lead edge of the right blade into the root far enough to stop the forward progress of the mower. I quickly disengaged the blades and the mower ran a bit before I shut it off. After freeing the mower, I cranked it no problem but it started to die within seconds and...

Thanks for the help.

Right-side spindle housing has one cracked lug so I ordered an assembly for that. The blade spins freely on that side. The housing on then left side looks good, with no cracks, but that blade doesn't turn near as easily when belts are slack. I don't feel rough, notchy movement but it just...

Thanks, working this weekend but will do Monday. I expect to need at least one spindle assembly. I'm thinking it's worth it to pay a little extra to get a good one that doesn't have a grease fitting for periodic lubing. I think the originals are sealed.

I will absolutely do that. I can't get to the mower for a couple of days but that sounds like the type of event that could cause what I'm hearing and I'm pretty sure I remember seeing tip damage on one blade. Thanks a lot.

My YTH22/46 has had a hard life but I've been trying to give it a little more attention. I recently repaired broken welds where the lift brackets attach to the deck. Now I have a lot of clattery noise when the blades are engaged. Here are the symptoms. Mower (engine) sounds great when blades...
