MY 13 HP HAS trouble turning the starter over, so I pulled off the fly wheel an on the underside there are 5 magnet , 1 has broken off and jammed up in their. I did some reseach and it looks like its for th DC recharging, If I remove that magnet and put It back on will he mower start, I have to locate a starter as mine is fried or smells that way. Wha is the best web siteto find a replacement.

Hi,
First just removing the magnet will affect the flywheel balance and the charging of the machine. Tha said, finding parts can be daunting on brands no longer made. I find that the flywheel is shown to be #611240 which changes to #611253 and the starter is #37425.
Some outlets are better than others, and some more trustworty than others. Often the least expensive place can be eBay. I found both listed as in stock at:
Lawn Mower Parts and lawn tractor parts and more Outdoor Distributors - Lawn Mower Parts (http://outdoordistributors.com/index.html)
I in fact looked them up from a parts manual from here:
"K&T Parts House Lawn Mower Parts and Chain Saw & Trimmer Parts" (http://www.mymowerparts.com/pdf/Tecumseh-Engine-Parts-Manuals/)
That I will attach.
Peace,
Clarke
