My mule won't start.
 
I have a 147 with a loader that the thing wont go.
Cranks over but only a sputt once or twice thats it.
I filled the tank first before I tried with new gas.
I used it once to move the first snow it ran great.
But now poor Yourik is DEAD. :beatdeadhorse:
Any ideas?:bigthink:

David is the fuel petcock open? Getting spark?

The fuel valve is open I always close it when not in use.
So the first thing I do is open it.
It sputs once or twice.

Check your points, make sure they aren't burnt and the timing is correct per Matt's instructions.

Dave,
I have 149 w/kwik-way and is also a pain to start without a jump start. I open the trottle 1/4 way open pull the choke all the way out until the engine starts to cough then close the choke 1/2 way and the engine starts then. It starts to rotate faster and faster then it'll start. The battery is in good conditon but just doesn't start.
Good luck

Games back on!!
