Noticed that one person mentioned amp meter never thought of that ? but no one on here has ever mentioned about the safety switches that connects everything so that there will be no spark only one person mentioned the safety switch on the seat being having problems with my craftsman 9000 26 hp Kolher changer coils module ingnition switch spark plugs battery checked and cleaned carb checked fuse since mine is got a pto electric switch . So I’m down to safety switches now hopefully this is it and did change rubbers on-gas tank and gas lines since they do rot away over time . Hope this helps and gives any of you’s an-idea. Thank you for your help on this stuff people.
