Why is there no spark on my lawn mower?
If you don’t see a spark on the tester, there may be a problem with the ignition coil of the flywheel to which it’s attached. The ignition coil doesn’t frequently develop problems, but the connection between the flywheel and coil or between the starting pulley and flywheel can wear out, and the coil may not be turning.
How to troubleshoot a Kawasaki MULE that will not start?
Pulled plug changed plug, and it gets plenty of spark, finger over spark plug hole will blow back when turning engine over, cleaned fuel filter, new gas, pull fuel line to carb gas is pumping to the carb, pulled carb cleaned it…. That still didn’t work, then I tried to start with Ether and it would not hit even with ether.
How do you check for Spark on Project Mule?
The easiest way to check for spark at the plugs is to remove a plug, reattach it to the plug wire and then ground the outside metal part of the plug to the block or any negative grounded part on the motor. Then spin the motor and look for spark at the plug electrode. This is best done out of direct sun light as the spark will be faint.
Where did the Kawasaki Project Mule come from?
I purchased this mule as a basket case, I later learned it was previously used on a construction site in Mississippi and near salt water, needless to say I have had my work cut out for me removing parts etc.. I have installed a new used motor, new electronics with ECU, and countless other parts.
