Hi, I'm a brand new used Tiger Cub owner.
I bought the mower used at what I considered to be a decent price knowing that it needed a new seat, anti scalp wheels and has an oil leak in what the seller told me was the head gasket. He told me that the starter, the Hydro lines, wiring harness and one front tire was new.
When attempting to start now however, it makes a loud clicking sound but if I turn the key on and off several times, the engine will eventually turn over and start.
I am thinking along the lines of a more problematic engine issue that probably burned out the first starter?
Any is advice you might be able to offer would be greatly appreciated! Also, how difficult is it to change the head gasket? It has the 21 HP Kawasaki.

Thanks, Eric
