Bad solenoid in lawn tractor?
Asked Aug 18, 2006, 08:41 AM

2 Answers I was installing a new solenoid in my lawn tractor. The new solenoid posts were bigger than the eyelets in the cable connections. I drilled them out a bit. While tightening the cable connections onto the solenoid the posts in the solenoid began to spin...did I ruin the solenoid?  |

| Thanks Briggs...If you don't see it...(before I got your reply :-( ) I ripped the solenoid apart to see if the fact that the post was spinning would have prevented it from working. Just as you said - it wouldn't...the post is not connected to anything it was just the point where the contact would hit when the solenoid was energized... Live and learn. :-). | ||||

Hi There, I have one MTD lawn tractor for many years. It is a MTD 14.5/42
Mower Runs Fine, Just When I Engage Blades, Will Run For A Min And Then It Will Disengage Blades, What Is The Problem
I recently bought a used mtd lawn tractor, 38" deck, 7 speed manual ,12 hp i/c briggs engine. The tractor needs a new transmission belt. Because I don't have an owners manual or parts list, I don't know which belt to order. Does anyone know what belt I need?
I had just finished mowing my lawn. The tractor sat in the lawn for about an hour. When I returned, it would not turn over. It makes a small click noise then nothing. I charged the batter over night, same result in the morning. It has a Briggs 14.5 HP engine. Where do I start? Thanks.
