All the "safety" engine-kill "features" on this mower will ground the ignition system, stopping the engine and causing a no-spark condition. Check the seat switch, the brake switch. Also, the circuit board will cause the problem you have if it gets rained on, (the mower hood does not protect it); point is do not let the mower get rained on (or washed) unless you protect the PC board, which is right behind the ignition switch. Mine dried out and worked again but only after liberal spraying with (plastic-safe) electronic parts cleaner. You are right the manual would help, it's like $76 but it's in depth. Good luck, and PLEASE tell us what the solution was! -Tom

Helpful Deere lx176, lx178, hood hinge tip: If the hood hinge is broken on yours like on most, Deere has a GREAT repair kit that's only $10. They really priced it at cost or less to correct a defect they are aware of.

You can purchase a cheap pump that will work off a drill, or a hand pumper. You will have to pump the oil out of the motor into a container, change the filter, and be careful not to overfill the engine when putting the new oil back in with a funnel. It is possible that the motor is not staying on because the oil level is low. Some machines have on oil level sensor that turns them off when the level is too low.

BOAT#1: I experienced the same thing when I had a mouse nest in my water box. When ever you turned left the nest would plug the exhaust and cause an RPM drop till the boat slowed down. BOAT#2: Another thing that can cause intermittent running is moisture in the electronics box. If the box has water in it, open it up overnight to let it dry out, then reseal it and it should run normally again. BOAT#3: The third thing that has caused the same issue you described, was dirty carburetors (SS XI) from bad gas and improper storage. This was made worse because there were also bad spark plug caps on the machine. Hope one of these solutions fixes your problem.

Sure, cables always start stretching just before they snap, as one strand at time breaks and unravels.

You should try flushing the engine, you could have a motor full of sand if you beach the craft but do not wash the sand out of the back before starting. Also inspect the engine water tubes for cracks. From the hull to the motor and from the hull to the jet pump.

If the seal is in the jet pump, get an impellor tool and replace all the seals and bearings in the jet pump. You will have to pull the engine to replace the crankcase seals or the rear hull seal.

The seals in the drive pump can be replaced by taking off the ride plate and pump housing. To replace any other seals (engine or hull) you will have to remove the motor from the hull.

your belt is probably gone and the bike is in crawl mode

it is very likely the alternator field coil is shorted, this is the common cause, replace the field coil and the rectifier and check all the connectors from the field coil for overheating, replace all that show signs, this is a common problem in early *** bikes, no matter the brand.
