I was given a non running craftsman rear engine. The following is what I am down to.
Start:
Initially it wouldn't start. When I connect it to my charger and use the START ENGINE feature, the engine rolls over and fires up. I'm assuming a bad battery?
Run:
It runs ok, but makes very loud popping noises. I cleaned the bowl and noticed it has an adjustable jet in the bottom of the bowl. Not sure if this is where to make the adjustment but nothing I did made much difference. I out a new plug in it and ran new fuel line. The line from the air cleaner to the engine is split however.
Move:
It will not roll in neutral. It also will not move in any of the gears with the engine running. When I lift the rear wheels off the ground, I can spin the left wheel, and the right spins in the opposite direction. The drive belt is intact but it's so obscured I can't tell much else.
Blade:
The blade runs when engaged.
Help?
