Only two things come to mind, either when replacing the fuel lines you didn't push the supply line down into the tank far enough, or, dare I say it, hook up the fuel lines correctly to the primer bulb (I know you said thay are correct, but it's usually the obvious things that give trouble)

17.5 HP Yard Machine (Stalling Issues)

B

bsparrow on Jul 02, 2005

I own a 17.5HP Yard Machine, and recently we've been having problems. The mower stalls when engaging the cutting deck. When I attempt to restart the mower, there's no response. When I turn the key, there's no click, no turning of the engine, it's total silence. It seems as though there may be an electronic problem, regarding safe-guards, but why would the mower stall so easily? If you have any questions or need more information, I'll be watching this thread. I really appreciate any help you guys may be able to give me. :wall: BrianRead More

Tecumseh Hydrostatic Transmission Problems

In order to remove/replace the drive pulley from Murray 42" lawn tractor I had to take it apart down to removing the rear wheel/transmission assembly. In trying to pull the pulley off, the pulley AND drive shaft to transmission came out (this can't be a good thing...). I think a was able to get the drive shaft reinserted to the transmission properly. Everrything seem to move OK. Has been in garage, still disassembled for a few weeks. The transmission has been hanging in a "downward direction" (as opposed to its normal horizontal orientation when properly attached to the tractor). This weekend noticed it has been leaking fluid from both left and right sides of the transmission. Not a lot, about maybe 2 tablespoons or so. But now it seems the drive shaft is frozen, will not turn with the wheels. Any ideas for me? Does the loss of fluid cause this? Could the be the end of this lawn tractor? Did I really mess up here? Thanks.Read More
