engine was just completely rebuilt,head, valves, pistons and sleaves.
Engine turns over fine with no plugs but under compression will only turn one revolution. Put in 3 rebuit starters already. This is a 6 volt system. what's up?
-   Cam shaft never taken out, when cold will crank a few times and even run for a few seconds, I know the carb needs work, I found a stuck float today. Engine will turn over with the hand crank. When hot will only crank about one rev then seems to draw too much current to keep cranking. -   Guest
Two things come to mind. If the plug base is too deep it could bottom out on the piston, and if the cam/shaft timing is off by a tooth or more it could also cause this problem. Check it out.

I have just bought a 2004 castlegarden twin cut mower with a twin cylinder 20hp briggs engine. It has a new battery and showing 12.84v on a meter but when i try to start it is wont swing the engine. It seems like there isent enough juce going into the starter maby. I think the previous owner used to jump start it with another battery due to a dead battery. Could this have damaged it some how. it has a sealed lead battery. Can anyone help me pleas?

I have a John Deere X300 garden tractor. When going into reverse the deck blades stop cutting unless you pull up on the switch. We have no little kids so safety is not an issue. How do you get around this? It's very aggravating!
