This is the second season on the mower. Sure enough, on like the second cut of the year the engine starts to run crappy part way thru the cut. This is my wife's mower.
It has electric start so I don't need to be around to start the mower for her. Very nice.
After running crappy for a while, it conked out. I would restart, run crappy, and conk out again. I finished the lawn with a beater mower from the corner of the garage.
A week goes by. Now she is 5 minutes into her cut and the engine starts running crappy again, and conks out. It wont restart. Wait...after a few minutes it starts, but will only run poorly for a minute before dying. I should have checked for spart right then and there, but did not.
Tonight I was going to run the mower until it died, and then check for spark. HA It would not start cold. No spark at all.
I am thinking coil.
Briggs & Stratton 595009
Ignition Coil, Armature Magneto
(Superseded to 84005272)
Is there a way I can use a multimeter to prove the coil is dead before I order one?
Are there any other things I should check before ordering the coil?
Thanks
Dale
