does my 12.5 hp Kawasaki have a igniter?
Original Message   Jul 25, 2005 4:21 am
hi all- I picked up this mower with a 12.5 hp Kawasaki ( FB460 V). It has a few things missing, but all that appears missing is the coil on the motor. is this motor the same as your normal briggs/tecum motor or is their more to the ignition that may be missing? I didn't see any points so I'm wondering if the coil was electronic ignition? under the cover is just the big fan wheel-  thanks for any help here      Gene

What type of mower is this?  A commercial walk-behind or a zero-turn?

to Ajace- this mower is a Zero Turn that you walk behind. I think you can attach one of those single wheel do-hickies that has a place for your feet on each side.  It is a 36" Scag with belt controls to rear wheels. at this point all That I can tell that is missing is one front wheel and the motor coil. and maybe the 'igniter' if this motor is supose to have one?  anyone explain to me how or what the igniters purpose is? does it co-incide as a unit with the coil?  I heard som Kawasaki motors used igniters and some didn't..?      thanks again for all who are helping me here- you guys/gals are a great group here.      Gene

I'm glad to hear you finally got a mower that's right for you at an unbeatable price.  Sounds like a little TLC and everything is a ok.
