Thanks for the video. I just got the exact mower won’t start saw water and fuel in air box too. But still won’t start on starting fluid. I will try cleaning carburetor tomorrow

[@MunkyWrench]

Let me know what u come up with I can try to walk u through it

[@tommycoyle4475]

@@MunkyWrench ended up being water had to bring it somewhere $160 to do carburetor, choke cable, spark plug. Not too happy on price I paid but runs good

@@tommycoyle4475 unfortunately sometimes it just needs a pro.. I just did a vid on cleaning a carb on a commercial walk behind with water in the system.. water is big here in Florida with daily condensation.. good luck with it and keep watching

Every time I have to go to the Scag dealer for parts, I start out bit@hing about my old Turf Tiger and I need a new one. I always end up saying, I doubt I could replace it. Even knowing just the 3 belts are going to cost me almost 159.00.

Yeah they don't make em like they used to.. worth keeping alive

[@sithlord9013]

Your not supposed to engage the drive without the hand brakes locked in or squeezed up so there is no tension on the belts/ load on the transmission. This will kill your drive system. It also will not jump on you like it did.

With all the rain that you said you had where you live. The gas station where he gets his fuel. Maybe some water sheet down into their tanks. And that's where the water came from. I don't trust too many gas stations in my area. I live in Connecticut. I have a 36 inch and a 40 eightditch. Skag walk behand best machines on the market. I might be purchasing a 33 inch. Skag

Really it saves time by just drain fuel tank and system Then you know it’s a carb thing

Great fckn video!!!!!

Hi my scag 36" don't want to walk when I put on number 2,3,4

[@ricoromero4060]

Only kn number one

[@MunkyWrench]

It's a belt drive on the wheels. I would 1st check the belts for wear , I would jack up the rear and put on stands so it's stable and with a second person squeezing I would make sure all the moving parts are moving correctly then I'd check the cables that work the mech

[@ricoromero4060]

Ok thankyou

[@MunkyWrench]

@@ricoromero4060 I'm doing a live stream on 4th of July at 2pm Florida time. It's already scheduled so u can go to my channel and set up reminder n hit thumbs up 👍.. if you come in we can talk about it maybe in more detail and see what we can figure out

[@redhandedreviews3482]

The new ones suck that's why we keep the old ones..I just bought one today for 550 needs fuel line drive belt and gas

[@MunkyWrench]

Exactly

[@2ndgenjohn576]

I bought a v twin version of the mower he has. Came with a velkie as well. All for $180 needs carb and fuel lines! Runs fine off of brake clean.
