coil is grounded ?
wire from coil to switch is grounded so it does not start. removed wire from ground mower engine then starts okay. changed switch to one that does work and reconnected to earth on block and it will not start.checked all safety switch all okay.no start.it was suggested to take a wire from the block to an seperate on/off switch. this would over come the problem of ground the coil
