2010 exmark, engine squeal then pops 20A fuse..sometimes..
I recently replaced the original FX801V with an FX850V EFI, ran fine for 20 hours or so. I shut it off and then restart, (before PTO is engaged) and it starts a loud squeal (from the engine, it sounds), pops fuse and dies. The first couple times I replaced the fuse and all seemed normal for several hours. Today it did it, but after replacing the fuse, the squeal came right back. A quick off-on with the ignition switch made it stop squealing.
Also, the starter completely fried a couple days ago. I swapped it with the old one from the 801 and working fine for now. Could be related?
Any ideas where to start?
