I am having an issue starting y 2012 Cub Cadet RZT-S mower. When I tried to start it at the beginning of the season it would not start. I replaced the spark plus, fuel and air filters with no results. Battery was fully charged as well. I noticed that when it cranked, it would not do so at times. So I changed out the starter and solenoid. It cranked normal again, but still would not start. I drained all the fuel, added new fuel and cleaned the carb and still nothing. I just replaced the fuel pump as well and still not starting. If I shoot starter fluid in the carb, it fires up. I had the battery checked and was told it was fine. I am thinking about getting a new battery, but wanted to see if anyone out there had any ideas what else could be going on. Thanks

Does it keep running after giving it a shot of starting fuel. If so I would check and make sure choke is working.

It continues to run after using starting fluid. I am able to mow my lawn. Far as I can tell the choke is working.
