Hello,

I have John Deere X300 with 90 hours on it. I started it up yesterday and it ran for about 10-15 seconds and then it cut out. I tried restarting it and will not crank all you hear is just a click. Does anybody have any ideas what maybe the problem

Thank You

True.  12.3 volts indicates that the battery is 70% charged.  My point is that if it's a new battery, it should be fully charged.  Unless futile attempts to start the engine have drained it to where it's reading. 

Keep a charger on the battery until you get the engine started and let us know what the problem is/was once you figure it out. 

I have a x300 that will generally start most of the time. the problem appears to be once in a while when attempt to start it just clicks. Battery is fully charged. My guess is a dead spot on starter. any advice on changing/testing starter

thanks

I have a john deere X300 riding mower and want to adjust the valve clearance.  How is it done?
