John Deere LX277. Engine won't stay running when
I would check the air filter, but I doubt that is the general problem. I would think that would have started the problem, but, You most likely tried to start it "right after you washed it",,,and you might have sucked, (for lack of a better word),,some condensation, "water", into the carb....in which case,,,,best scenio,,,,Spray a bit of carb cleaner into the air intake, but only after you clean",air filter" that before. And if that doesn't work,,,,then you would have to clean and drain the water out of the gas,,,,,and carb...............Check the spark plug too, and clean it,,with ethanol in our gas now,,,,,,,,,,,It can really mess with just about anything.....my car and my lawn mower....are a constant "mess"
john deere lawn tractor LX277 I checked for spark with a inline spark tester and has a very very faint spark then I checked for spark
with a spark plug type tester and has no spark
The coil only has 1 wire going to them and I don't think it has any points to check I think it is electronic ign. As I said before I replaced the electronic module part and ign. switch and it still didn't start for a long time then it just started and run thereafter until about a month later when this happen no start again.
I went to start my tractor and when I turned the key on the radio worked and everything seem normal but when you turn the key to start it everything quite working. I have checked the conections on the battery and cleaned them but it still does it . You can let it sit for a few minutes and it will kick back on until you turn the key. It acts like it's loosing ground. What could cause this.
