I have run into an issue with my mower and am looking to see if anyone had any ideas. I have a rather old Montgomery Ward riding mower with a 14 HP Briggs and Stratton engine. When I attempt to start it the starter engages the flywheel and stops. I have verified that the motor spins freely by removing the spark plug (to get rid of any compression issues), and even then it does not turn the motor. Here is a Youtube video of exactly what I'm talking about.

Things I have tried:
Checked ground wire, seems to be fine, I even ran a jumper cable wire from ground post on battery direct to motor block.
Battery Charge, I have it on a charger, and have even attempted to jump it with my vehicle
Begging, that also failed to work
