    Troybuilt Riding Mower Won't Start
    I have a Troybuilt Bronco Mower. I just replaced the battery 3 months ago. Every time I turn the key on the ignition, nothing happens. It has fresh gas and new plug. All requirements to start the lawn mower were checked. The parking break is engaged, the blades are disengaged and the throttle was set on choke. Thanks in advance

    Try Checking The Solenoid If The Battery Checks Ok, You Can Test The Battery With A Voltmeter Set On Dc Volts, It Can Show 12 Plus Volts And Still Be Bad, When The Load Is Applied It Pulls The Volts To Low To Turn Engine. Perhaps If The Solenoid Is Good It Is A Bad Ground Where The Solenoid Mounts To Mower Frame, Perhaps It Is The Needle Valve In The Carb. Stuck Open And Flooded The Carb. Cylinder, And Crankcase With Gas. Remove The Spark Plug And See If Engine Spins Over, Watch For Fuel To Escape Cylinder, If This Happens, Change Oil , And Filter , Replace Plug , Add Fuel Shut Off To Fuel Line And Mow Your Grass. Or Perhaps Your New Battery Did Not Have The Correct Cca Rating, We Only Use 300 Cca Batteries. If You Used A Weaker Cca Battery You May Have Ruined Your Starter.
