Hello, i have a craftsman 917.273100 50' 22 hp kohler engine. First i should add i have replaced the rectifier and electric clutch. I thought these were the root of my pto issue but i after i replaced the clutch the pto switch kept burnin up. The first pto switch after the new clutch lasted for a few mows, then the 2nd one lasted around 2 hours. I have replaced the solenoid and now it wont work at all. I have to cross the solenoid to get it started an the amp meter shoots over more and more as i turn up the rpm's and it will gradually go back to 0. Im sick of putting serious money into it and am geussing its a short but im not good with electricity.
