When I go to crank the mower it won’t start. It only makes a continual clicking noise that begins as soon as I turn the key on. Nothing changes and the noise continues as I try to turn the key to start. I’ve uploaded a picture of the part that the clicking is coming from, I can even feel the part vibrating with the clicking. So what exact part is this? A fuel solenoid? Any suggestions and tips would be appreciated greatly. Thanks

That looks to be a fuel filter. No clicking coming from that unit unless aliens have laid their eggs inside.

Start with a wash job. Life is too short to work on dirty engines. :ROFLMAO:

Sounds like a dead battery, but lots more information is needed.
