Lisa, Make sure fuel supply shut off is on and fresh fuel in tank. Could be clogged fuel filter, fuel pump issue if equipped or a fuel shut off solenoid,dirty carburetor, etc. Check the attached links,instruction and guides on trouble shooting no fuel to engine. Good luck

    Lisa, check for in line fuse in the ignition harness, it may be blown, solenoid could be bad, starter switch, plug, wires could be faulty,corroded,damaged. Google search (lawn tractor not starting from ignition switch) for more detailed info. and test you can try.

Why won't my yard man briggs and stratton 7.5 hp engine crank

Check for blown fuse if good put a light tester on the starting then turn the key if your tester lights up then you know that the stater is bab if it does not then you do not have power to the shotch. One red wire should have power all the time and the other red wire should have power only when the key is on.

Starting engine, Get Click, click, small amout of movement. Changed batt, sole, safe switch, starter, Remove Spark Plugs Engine Turns over Starter spins engine round & round. Plugs back in no good?

Check for spark at the spark plugs. If you have spark, the the problem is fuel related. If your carbs have an electrical solinoid below the bowl, unplug the wire connection and THEN unscrew the solenoid. There maybe a fiber gasket, be careful not to tear it. Unscrew the solenoid and check to see if clean fuel comes out of the bowl. If no fuel comes out, you have to clean the carb bowl and the jet. If clean and FRESH gas does come out of the bowl, then the (fuel shut off) solenoid is stuck in the OFF position. (the alcohol in our gas causes these solenoids to rust and stick) Buy a new solenoid.
NOW if you don't have spark, check the kill switches first, you may have 3 on a riding mower.You can temporaily bypass them if you don't have an ohm meter for testing.
