Craftsman lawn tractor Kohler cranks, backfires then dies
I have an 8 yr old 15.5 Kohler engine Craftsman ride on mower that cranks for quite a bit, then starts, backfires then dies. I have changed the sparkplug which made no difference. Any tips?

IT DID. IT IS OK. THE MOTOR HAS SPARK, COMPRESSION AND FUEL. THE FUSS IS 15 AMP AND IS NOT BROKEN. ANY OTHER IDEAS.
