    Lawn chief 12/39
    I bought a lawn chief 12/39 used.The problem I am having is it starts very hard and I usually have to jump start it.When I do get it started.I can drive around all day without problems and it can also sit idle with the mower running but when both are engaged it stalls.It has a 12hp briggs engine in it.

    Thanks,
    Karl

Lawn Chief not running [ 5 Answers ]
