Hi bebuzz66,
I just did a google search for fb460v and the 2nd link was a 72 page service manual in pdf and downloadable. but you need both this manual and the tractor manual with a wiring diagram as the machine has several safety circuits that will cause both a no cranking and or no spark condition when not correctly positioned or malfunctioning.

Spray a little carb cleaner, WD40, starter fluid or gasoline into the carb to see if it tries to start... :smile:KennyV

Do you have electronic fuel shut of solenoid on bottom of carb if so make sure its working correctly by taking it out and hooking 12v and make sure its working in and out without sticking its job is to **** fuel off and if not working correctly it will let no fuel in
