I have a craftsman reverse engine lawn tractor. The first 2 years of use be unbelievable. But in a minute my battery dies adjectives of the time and i can never get it to turn over. I'm trying to avoid buying a spanking new battery as my funhds are low at the time But when i do obtain it started and i want to turn it off the knob doesnt work when its in the stale position. I have to put it surrounded by choke in charge to shut it off.

Can someone inform me why my ignition doesnt work? why my battery never works and what do i hold to do to fix it.
Answers:    It is two different problems. The first is the battery requests to be replaced. The second is either the switch is desperate or the ground wire have a bad nouns. The ignition is "turned off" by grounding the ignition coil. Either the switch is bad or the ground cable has a impossible connection.
It's probably one and the same problem, change the ignition switch. Your ignition is other on and the switch is not turning it off.
