Howdy, I repeat, it is a battery problem. A alternator problem. You need the proper voltage for it to work correctly.

Howdy, Go put your batteries on a charger. Have them fully charged.

Howdy, Let me convey some thinking. I myself would rather start with a known broken engine and do all the things I need to do. To start into a engine which was said to have been taken apart and put back together and have the issues you are coming up with... no way. RTV might have its place here...

Howdy, I do not have a dog in this fight either. You got reamed. You would have been better off not knowing anything was done with the engine and doing it all correctly yourself. You would have been better off with a non runner and working it over. It is a sad state of affairs when you accept...

Howdy, Some of your answers are too short. Rebuild = rebuilt by the guy you bought the unit from. (does he know what he's doing?) How much of a rebuild was done? Why did that person rebuild it? Was a new hour meter installed by the guy that did this rebuild? Note: John Deere break-in oil is...

Howdy, Before you have everyone on the forums throwing guesses out... You need to confirm a few things for proper assistance. Did you change out all filters? (fuel cartridge, spin-on water/fuel, oil filter, air filter) Have you drained any and all fuel from the tank? Have you cleaned the tank...
