hey guys i am new here. i have a few john deere lawn mowers. right now i am having trouble with a model 21 self propelled push mower.
it wasnt starting last summer. i put it off to the side. well this summer i would like to use it. last year it would start with a wiff of carb cleaner. that would tell me carb. so this spring i got the new gasket between the carb and tank. put some fresh fuel in and turned the key (electric start). nothing happend. gave it a wiff of carb cleaner and still nothing. pulled the plug and confirmed there was no spark.
well another piece of the puzzle. the bagger attachment has 2 ground wires (black) that go to a small round electric item. there is also a red wire coming from that same electric device. i have no idea if this is my problem or not.
anyone have some thoughts to get me started. thanks guys
