Hi, have had similar issue to this , where the valve seat had migrated out of position and was not sealing on the valve, would backfire out of the carby, also a stuck valve will give similar symptoms. if you spray some brake cleaner in carby and it starts for a bit then you may have fuel supply...

Thanks again, I did manage to get the smart switch wiring diagram and spread it over 2 A4 pages to follow circuit layout, I have started modifying a harness off another ride on mower so I could use it as a test subject to bypass the smart switch to prove its the issue, if I had a 10x2 connector...

Thanks for the info, that’s great, I will check out wiring diagram and compare to smart switch loom to see if I can just modify existing harness and attach connectors required for standard ignition, cheers…

My sisters husky is having issues with smart switch I suspect, mower starts ok then you engage blades no problems, then mows fine, when you disengage the blade switch the engine shuts down. It does it fairly consistently, I have an electrical trade background so have bypassed and checked the...

Local mower shop can get new bearing, but none in country till end of month….seems parts availability is crap here at present. Few other suppliers same issue….China is not producing The goods anymore probably.

Rear trans disassembled, found the thrust bearing on the output drive hydraulic motor near the brake disc end, bearing cage had failed ( see pic) . the metal fragments in the filter were from the cage, so far no other damage found , looks like the fragment got to the filter before they caused...

Good to know...thanks for the info

Mmmm...might be a challenge if I needs bits for hydro...I noticed you can't get individual seals for the unit, they make you by a kit.... As you said all about profit..

Thanks for the info, once I get rear trans apart will see what the damage is inside and hopefully its an easy fix. Hopefully parts are ok to get here. Cheers

Great, thanks for the info.....

Well I drained the oil from front and rear drive units, oil was very black, removed rear filter and found grass seeds in it and some metal particles, like small teeth….not good…..the filter looked awful, never been changed, has had a hard life before I got it…..see pics. will remove front unit...

Yes I might have to see if any nasties in the oil, could an out of sync adjustment cause this from front to rear wheels. don’t think it’s the drive pulley as isolating front drive stops the noise, but will check just in case.

No worries i gathered you were thinking of AWD push mower with plastic drive in wheels.

Once I work out how to delete one……

No worries, will delete one

Hi, not sure about plastic gears, just standard axle with key way on these wheels.

Ok, great, will check that out first.

Thanks Rivets for the info, the wheel gears you mention I gather are inside the drive unit .

Hi, I am an Aussie,just joined this great forum, have a few vintage and recent model ride on mowers I am restoring so will find this forum helpful and I hope to help others also….cheers.

I have a husqvarna R316Ts AWD with a tuff torq KTM10lb front transaxle that has started to make a gear or spline grinding slippage noise if you accelerate quickly from stationary position in forward or reverse.if you take off slowly it seems ok. I have just replaced a deck belt pulley that had a...
