    by passing starter solenoid

    I have read and have removed and replaced a starter motor on a BX1500 Kubota. It is a nightmare because of room spacing. I know now that the contacts on my solenoid are not making good contact when I try to start. Without trying to remove the starter again. Here is what I am thinking of...

    starter howl

    I have a Toro Timecutter MX5060, Kawasaki FR691V 23hp engine. When I start it after its set up awhile, say a week or so or longer, the starter makes a howling sound. It never fails to engage or start up but I'm thinking maybe a bearing or something is bad. Its been doing this for several...

    Question about the starter on a 2012 X540 John Deere garden tractor.

    I hope someone can bail me out here....For some unknown reason, the starter on this mower burned itself up while mowing? Really?? Can that actually happen? Anyways, it's toast. The John Deere part number is MIA12264. John Deere has informed me that they do not have them in stock, and if they...

    PTO Switch chattering

    So I own a Huskee LT4200 with a Kohler courage SV530-0222. I went out after winter to start it up and the solenoid just spun and did not rise to engage. So I replaced the solenoid, same symptom. Then I heard chattering coming from under the seat, so I think relay, replace that. Same issue, then...

    I have a Toro SmartStow 22" Recycler 190cc with a Briggs & Stratton L-Head. Was running one day and then next weekend it would not start. I cleaned the carb multiple times with ultrasonic and with carb cleaner. All the holes seem to be clear. I put a new gapped plug and fresh fuel. It is one of...

    Starter Spinning

    I have a Scag mower with a FH580V Kawasaki engine. It appears that the gear on the starter shaft has come loose from the shaft. When energized the starter gear rises to engage the flywheel. The starter shaft spins at a high speed, but the gear doesn't move. Is this a DIY repairable situation...

I just put up with it until this year. I pulled it off carried it to a starter shop it was full of dirt they cleaned it and...

    ISX3300 Starter Problem

    Three weeks ago, I had to replace the starter. (You had to turn the key several times before the starter would engage.) Two days ago, a new problem occurred. There are two things going on. First, the mower can be started even with no one sitting on it. Second, after starting, the starter is not...

    PushMower 11A-18MC010 starter spring

    12 volt clone starter

    Replacement for a generator I believe it is a 208cc, Pentagon 4400E. Anybody know where I can get one at a reasonable price? Or maybe just a part number. I did find one on "Generator Guru" #42352621 but it seems way overpriced at $120.00.
