    Craftsman mower will not crank over when engine is hot. When cooled it startsup agai
    Craftsman 19 1/2 hp riding mower starts fine when engine is cold. If I stop the mower, and then try to restart, the moter will not crank over. Battery good, 1 year old.
    After the motor sits and cools down the moter turns over just fine again.

    It's like the motor has expanded from the heat to the point where the battery can't turn it over more than about 1/2 rotation until it has cooled down again.

    Again, I do not think the battery is the problem. Cranks well when cold.

    Thank you,
