I am working on a Poulan Pro Mod. PD22H42ST, Ser. 020704C 002516, MFG ID PD22H42STA riding mower with a Briggs and Stratton Twin V 22HP engine..mod 407577, Type 0283-E1, Code 030821YG. One of those deals where sometimes it runs fine, sometimes not. When sitting in the seat, depressing the Clutch/Brake pedal, it starts and continues to run when pedal is out. It will also continue to run if I engage attachment clutch on dashboard. If I disconnect the seat safety switch and try to start it, it will start, but as soon as I let up on the brake/clutch, it kills. It will also kill if I engage attachment clutch on dashboard. Shouldn't it keep running if clutch pedal is out when the seat safety switch is disconnected?
Also, I am confused by the wiring diagram. The diagram shows two ground wires going to the seat safety switch plug, but there are three. Likewise, the diagram shows to white wires going to Attachment Clutch and four black ground wires. There are only 3 black wires that go to it, and the two whites????
I will be working on it for awhile, checking hoses, filters, carb, etc, so may have more questions on this mower in future. Right now, any help with my questioons would be appreciated.
