721 RSW Installing Electric Fuel Pump On Lawn Tractor

[@WD4NYT99]

Two things, do a compression check and check the pcv, if it is stuck open the fuel pump will work poorly.

Tip for next time, cut the end out of the connector ring so it will slip over the screw shank so you don’t have to fiddle with a small screw with ouchy fingers.

A weak coil in the fuel shut-off solenoid can cause similar problems on a hot engine under load. They'll start and idle just fine, put a load on the motor and it'll kill the engine immediately.

Congrats!

You should eliminate the switch before you get branches reaching out and turning the switch off while you're mowing. If the coils don't fix the problem then check the valve clearance. They will not seat good as the engine heats up if it's out of range.

Had a similar issue and the governor flap was not moving the way it should often overlooked

Probably a better term for the hose you're calling "suction" would be impulse.

Budn budn! Like butter!

Great job. Would you happen to have the Amazon link for the electric fuel pump you used? Thanks

[@ranjrog]

When you turn while mowing, it looks like there is smoke coming out under that additional load. Is it burning oil and causing problems from that?

[@dwsnsgp]

You got the battery right there so why not ground it there?

[@saddletmp]

Governor might be the issue
