How to replace a kill switch on a husky 288 xp

There should be only 1 screw and one wire connecting the kill switch. The kill switch simply grounds out the ignition. So it is difficult to install improperly. The wire coming from the switch goes directly to the ignition module.

Husqvarna zero turn mower. Starts ok, but when I bring in the right handle the engine dies. The left is ok, I can move it in and go forward slightly with it, but when I engage the right handle the engine shuts off.

Your seat safety switch is not working. If the seat switch isn't activated, ie. a person sitting on the seat, the safety system will stop the engine when the levers are engaged. There is probably only one lever safety switch, on the right lever, which is why the left one doesn't kill the engine. Check the seat switch continuity and the wiring for loose connections.

Slow forward drive on hydrostatic mower husqvarva 316 tsx awd

Likely there is air trapped in the system. Try raising drive wheels (safely) off the ground and operating forwards backwards. With minimal load on the hydo pump and motor, the air should purge.

Husqvarna 128CD weed eater. The flywheel is tight, piston is at bottom when flywheel magnet is in contact with coil. How can I change it to correct position.

The flywheel key has likely sheared. Contemporary utility 2-cycle flywheel keys are integrated into the flywheel. A new flywheel will be likely be required.

Husqvarna 128CD weed eater. When flywheel magnet is in contact with coil, should piston be at top of cylinder or bottom.

Question edited for clarity and typo botton to bottom. It should be at the top of the stroke. It is called TDC or Top Dead Centre and is then the spark ignites the fuel and air to force the rotation onwards in the same rotation as travel.

Where to get rings for Husqvarna 145bt?

The problem is that the engine is a funny size at 40cc. If it was 50cc, you could get away with motorcycle rings. The normal way to size rings is by measuring the bore with an inside micrometer across left to right and then again front to back. The front to back measurement is often a little more worn. Then you order rings by diameter and thickness, Any local engineering company can do this and supply you with generic rings. There is a different model here with rings at $25 but Jack's Small Engines is $57. My advice is get the OEM ones. You will also need to hone the bore lightly to dull the polish. Oil the new rings with 2 stroke oil when fitting them. https://www.google.com/search?q=husqvarna+145bt+piston+rings+size ..

Husqvarna 125b keeps flooding and will not start...why?

Weak spark or no spark or spark at wrong time. Do not use a neon type spark tester as it will indicate spark when it is insufficient. Use an inline gap type tester.

To test for spark, compression, and timming, drain all the fuel, choke off and give the the starter several pulls. If the plug is wet, leave plug out and give it several pulls, reinstall plug and give it several pulls, then check plug. Repeat until all residual fuel is gone and plug remains dry.

Now that all fuel is gone you can use an alternative fuel, i.e. starter fluid, that won't flood the engine.

Air filter removed, hold throttle open and spray a 1 second burst directly down the carburetor throat, release throttle. Leave air filter off and promptly attempt to start, several pulls. If no fire then it's likely a spark or compression issue, not the carburetor.

If it fires and runs for a few seconds, then timing, compression, and spark are OK and carburetor remains suspect.

Comment for further assusrance.
