I thoroughly cleaned the deck, impellar and hosed off the grass,etc. on the engine. I had it running to engage the impeller and soaked her well. She started many times while I was cleaning. After I'm done....just the oil pressure light comes on and the starter doesn't engage. I let her dry out 7 hours in the sun/heat today but still the same. I tried to locate the two fuses but they are not the typical ones and the diagram doesn't do much to show me exactly where they are. I used compressed air in the electrical connections but still no go. Hopefully she'll dry out and be back to normal. I cleaned the plugs but have no idea where the points are. It is not fuel injected. Any advice welcome.

I called Walker and they called back within 3 hours. The problem was that I didn't have the Forward Drive Stick in neutral. I was instructed to push it the whole way forward and then back. She started right up! He assured me the engine and electrical connections are very watertight. Whew!:wink:
