Engine bad, need to repower

[JASTECH]

Borrow a cow or some goats, to tie up in that area !!

Down to 1 goat, dogs from town killed the others. The one remaining has been attacked 2 times.

New plug, air filter and fuel filter, nope. Then replaced coil, nothing, replaced carb, started and smoked then died

You've done all that - so you have skills. Look on FB mktplace and craigslist for a non-runner that just needs a carb cleaning or replacement.

A member here has offered to fix my rider. I don't know if it'll work out, he's a ways from me and I haven't sold the JD 925 parts only for the money to pay for repairs on my JD F710. I'm afraid I'll just destroy the push mowers trying to mow the 3 acres, not sure when the city will start pushing fines. I have 3 push mowers down right now. I know they aren't made to do what I'm asking them to do.

Here is another I have that I mowed over the water meter iron lid that was up after the city read the meter. The original engine was shot so a rototiller engine was bolted in place, for which I mowed the meter lid with. This engine is now shot, city said "how do you know we forgot to close the lid?"

Here are photos of the riders. I was told the 3 with engines all run. I replaced the fuel pump in the F710 in first photo. The other F710 for parts for first one. The F925 has two decks that go with it. The smaller rider is gas too but has a radiator? I bought them at auction as this was my budget. Need to sell F925 and the 2 decks that go with it, also the small rider in last photo. Anyone know what they are worth? I hope enough to fix F710. TIA

Man Jastech, you're a glutton for punishment. Why is the bagger on that mower with 4' high grass? Are you mowing just a pathway, or are you trying to knock down the whole area? You can push a (running and working) mower while holding it up angled at the front by pushing down on the handle while pushing in thick grass like that and that will help to clear all that mulch from the deck. Also the tip about tying up or even removing the scatter guard to clear cuttings is good. I've had to mow pathways like that that only get cleared once or twice a season and it is doable, but very slow going. Adding an Oregon G5 mulching blade will also help. It is what it is.

I have a Brute lawnmower BTPV22675E. Wouldn't start, so I thought tune up time. New plug, air filter and fuel filter, nope. Then replaced coil, nothing, replaced carb, started and smoked then died, never starting again. I'm disabled and single parent so can't afford to replace part after part. Looking for an "upgrade" engine. I have to mow some thick stuff, I push mow without self propelled. It takes a lot of oxygen bottles but has to be done. My other lawnmower is our Frankenstein, it has a rototiller engine on it. Well the city employee forgot to close the metal lid on water meter, yes, I hit it. Destroyed blade and blade adapter, shook real bad, slow pull on starting rope sounds like very bad disc brakes.

Where are you located?

I did some checking about the engine for your Brute lawnmower. According to PartsTree.com, They say that according to Briggs and Stratton, the correct replacement engine would be a 126L07-5662. You might be able to find a used one for that part number if you cannot afford a new one like from PartsTree.com.
