    Riding lawn mower stalls when engaging drive
    I recently purchased a used 8 year old 13 1/2 HP (B/S engine) 42" riding mower. It ran fine for one day. Now it will not allow me to release the brake pedal to engage drive without stalling out. I figure its something simple. Any help would be great! :mad:
