Hey

My 320 Lawn Tractor has the FD590V Kawasaki engine.

What make a spark plug on one side flood out with gasoline? It starts running rough and all I have found when I took both plugs out was that one (left side) was flooded with raw gasoline. Thanks

A coil is not firing.

 

[Glyn Robinson]

The right side plug is the one giving trouble. so you would say replace that coil?

 

[BlazNT]

With an insulated pair of plyers Remove the spark plug wire that you think is working while it is running. If mower dies then replace the other coil.

 

[Glyn Robinson]

ok thank you for the advice

 

[Glyn Robinson]

I will be replacing the bad coil soon. I will let you know how it turns out. Won't be long before the grass cutting will start.

 

[Glyn Robinson]

replaced the suspected bad coil and it runs like new now!

Good to hear, that's a real John Deere you have there. And do I see a late 80s Mustang GT in the background? Soon to be the ultimate vintage hot rod some day.
