New AC1377sy. First run broke transmission belt due to stick. Replaced belt. Started, drove across yard, tested cut, no problems. Drove to garage. Stopped and shut down. Next morning, Placed throttle in choke and started engine. Only ran in choke. Stopped and restarted. Only ran in choke. Stopped. Checked all known considerations. Tried to restart. After numerous tries and many checks. No luck. 4 old farts checked every thing. From rear to front and under. Had gas, spark, no known seat, break, etc problems. When replacing the transmission belt, is there any thing I might have missed that would cause this problem. I am very old, but have had several tractors.

toss a little fuel ( less than a tea spoon ) down the spark plug hole and see if it will start .
If you have starting fluid or carb cleaner spray a SMALL amount down the card throat and see it if fires on that.
Get back to us with the result .

Did you check for water in the fuel.
