Anybody out there know much about fixin'..... On Monday I was three quarters finished cutting me Ponderosa when my trusty MTD side throw just stopped mid cut . Thought it was out of fuel because it spluttered briefly ..Nup ..still had a nice bit .. blocked maybe ..Nup ..Plug was wet and fuel line full and primer working normally .. Plug maybe ..Nup .. I took the plug out which looked fine and even put it in my other MTD and fired and ran beaut . Coil maybe ...so I pulled the shroud and starter off and got the multi meter out ..seemed to test like it should after watching a instruction video on that .. A mystery ... She does seem to lack a bit of compression though.
Could it possibly be a stuck or stuffed valve as a friend at work suggested ..
What do you guys reckon ?.. She's about 11 years old and done a lot of heavy mowing . As MTD go it's been a good one til now with a Briggsy 158 cc engine . Any other possibilities why she just stopped suddenly . Any thoughts appreciated greatly as always.. Cheers ...
