My lawn tractor starter does not engage with the flywheel. I have replaced the starter, starter solenoid, battery, starter switch. Any thoughts? Thanks:confused:

Did you check the ground wire?

Thanks but that did not solve the problem either. Anymore suggestions. All the starter does is spin.

Did u try to replace the spark plug? What about gapping it. Is anything blocking the fuel line? If u can't get it, I suggust going to a tractor repair place. Or call the dealer or manufacturer. They should be able to help.

Did you by chance disconnect the battery and connect it wrong?

I am not sure I am making myself clear. The starter does turn but it is not engaging the flywheel. I have replaced the starter, battery, solenoid, starter switch. Thanks
