was given a used 16.5 crafstman riding mower thats been sitting along time, i cleaned the carb got it turn over now it starts idles very high then blows the 15 amp fuse.??????

 

Is it a Briggs engine, a Kohler engine or what???.. What engine is on it??? What fuse blows??? You gave us no info to look up anything....Give the pros the engine numbers as well as the model & serial number of the mower usually under the seat.... They can get you fixed up in no time if you tell them what your working on,,,, Roger
