I have a John Deere model 455, 3 cylinder diesel. It's rough starting , but most of the time it will throttle up and run. At other times, when you throttle it down, it won't throttle up again and idles rough.

WELCOME TO LMF!
It would help us if we had mower/engine model numbers.
Good luck! :smile:

Does it smoke when you try and throttle up?
