Engine My ferris mower will not stay running.

Check your battery, sounds like it does not have enough voltage to keep both the engine running and the PTO engaged.

that sounds very possible to me the problem is what caused the battery to go bad. it is only two weeks old that is why I,m looking into a short. thanks for the help. don't get down on yourself for being a grease monky it could be worse, you could be a gym teacher.
