I have an older used GT262 that I acquired about two years ago. I have performed regular maintenance on the mower but it has had one issue after another lately. I about ready to buy a new one but I would like to get this up and running instead.
Issue:
After almost finishing the lawn last night the mower shut off rather abruptly. I did not hit anything and was on only a minor incline. I checked the gas and oil and both were good. I replaced the fuel filter because it had been a little while. The mower turns on but when you turn the key it just makes a very loud whining/ buzzing pulsing noise and isn't really trying to crank. I checked to ensure I was in neutral and such but I have had no luck.
Any recommendations for what I should be checking?
I just replaced the PTO and switch about 4 hours ago.
At what point is it time to walk away and stop dumping money in the mower?
Thank you very much for your time and input!!
