Problem fixed - or maybe not

Ordered this igniter for my 30 year old JD 170 lawn mower because one day it wouldn't start. The test has shown that there is no spark. Studies have shown that the problem can be either in the igniter or in the coil. Resistance characteristics found on both and the igniter failed these tests while the coil passed. I ordered this after the sale to make sure it would solve my problem as it was 1/3 the cost of an OEM igniter with the idea that if it didn't solve it I'd spend less money trying to figure it out . The tractor started the first time but durability will be key. Aftercare After about 5 hours of use, mowing the lawn today, the mower shut down 3 times. After about a minute the mower started up and worked again, but after the 3rd time I turned it off. While I'm not sure if the fault lies with replacing the igniter, experience tells me that usually when something goes wrong shortly after a repair, you should start with the last one you replaced.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
