Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): cub, proper manuals, selinoid


Question
I have a Cub Cadet that i bought new in the fall of 2005.
It will turn over but will not fire.
New plug
New gas filter
New Gas
It cranks until the battery dies.
There is spark, first thing I checked. There is fuel going to carb. There is a selinoid on the bottom of the carb. I pulled the bottom of the carb off and there is gass in it.
When cranking it back fires every once in a while. But will not run at all.
Please help this tractor is to new to replace.
Thanks Kevin

Answer
 Hello Kevin:

 Check the Shut Off Solenoid Again.  Ground the Body of the Solenoid and Make Sure the Plunger is Moving In and Out. Send me the Make and Model Off the Mower and the Engine, Please. With these Numbers I can Locate the Proper Manuals and Better Assist you. Thanks.

 Respectfully

 John
