    Murray Riding Lawn Mower
    Hi Guys..

    When I crank my mower... it turns over but will not actually crank. I should start by saying that I did a "no-no". I had a weak battery and several times used my car to start (jump off) the lawn mower.. Since then I have gotten a new battery, but now it won't crank. I noticed smoke coming from somewhere when I try... but still nothing. Where should I start?:confused:

    Hmmm, if the engine is not turning over, you probably have a blown fuse and it sounds like you have the battery hooked up backwards.
