Engine would start cutting out and then it would quit running. Then it wouldn\'t start again until it cooled off.

Take the wires off of the carburetor solenoid and put a wrench between the solenoid and the carburetor Bowl and remove the solenoid. Then put the new one in its place. The way I figured it out that it needed a new solenoid I sprayed cold water on it to cool it off and then it would start right back up again. It would run fine until the so lenoid got real hot again. I just change the pre-filter and the fuel filter because it needed it. I was glad two fine parts for my 16 year old craftsman lawn tractor to make it run like new again. I have run it for about 3 hours so far so good.

Be careful not to damage the small plastic insert from the throttle linkage on the carburetor and the other end of the throttle arm as these parts do not come with the kit.
To remove a carburetor and put a new one on is a easy job, will need a mm socket set. The engine on the lawn tractor started up first time with no problems.
