I'm new to this post. I have a Craftsman model 917.272066 lawn tractor with a 16 HP Kohler model CV460S engine. Have electrical problems from time to time, mostly with safety switches, etc. Currently, I'm replacing the fuel shut-off solenoid. It looks pretty straight forward, but if anyone has any advice or suggestions, I'd be glad to hear them. This looks like a good post - glad to be part of it.

Hello gwcrabtreephd,
Welcome to LawnMowerForum.com. :smile: For help with your solenoid question, I would post in the Small Engine and Mower Repair forum. Best of luck with your lawn tractor!
Replacing the solenoid is fiarly easy if you can find or make the right wrench. You will need a thin 1/2" open end wrench to do it. I use tappet wrenches but most people don't have or know what they are. Most people tale a 1/2" wrench and grind it on each side until it is thin enough.
