Engine won't start/Starter just grinds
I have a MTD lawn tractor with B&S 21 hp engine. It was working fine last week, then when I ewent to start it last night the starter seems to just spin/grind without turning the engine. It is not the clicking sound you get when not enough battery charge. It seems not to engage the engine. Any thoughts on where to start looking for prblem.
Thanks jeff |

Re: Engine won't start/Starter just grinds
Could be the gear on the starter is worn. The gear that engages the
flywheel, I think its called the bendix...Common problem though, hopefully if that is the problem the gear wont be hard to get to.
