My MS250 is a good runner for a turd. LOL Surprised how much azz it has !

Now I am back to another whacker , or was . Needs parts I can't find without the model #s . Stickers are long gone ! Going to try to adapt something from my junk pile ? LOL
 
I have to run for now but will pick up again this evening.

This tractor has a fuel pump

And in pic#2 of last post shows the bowl which has a solenoid that closes main jet when ignition is off. Or so I have read in my research today
 
Somebody had that they were looking for PP305's and someone else wanted P50's.
Anybody know?
Too many cobwebs here to kick out.
 
Didn't say they couldn't

Tryin to put out all the details I can

Ok,.so the gas tank is under the seat so that means it must be lower than the carb therefore a fuel pump is needed to deliver gas to the carb. If that is the case then the crankcase is not filling up from gravity feed like I had pictured it. Is the fuel pump shutting off after the engine is stopped?

The pump is above one valve cover and runs off vacuum

Unless there is a second somewhere?

And in case this helps

It is a 1997 yardman 844 garden tractor

B&S 20hp intek v-twin

Ok ,.then its not an electric fuel pump so how then is it getting so much gas into the crankcase. If the engine was not burning it off when running, one or more cylinders would have to be dead to let that much gas into the crankcase.

I was told there is a diode in the wire that links the coils that goes bad which makes one cylinder not run
