Have a 2005 Cub Cadet Z Force with 44" deck. Was thinking starter is getting week. Go to start it and you can hear it try to engage. After doing this a few times, it will finally kick in and spin the engine. If I put the charger on, it will start easier.
Bough an after market starter of flea bay that is supposed to be a replacement as OEM is no longer available.
Finally decided to replace starter the other evening. Get old one out and new one in. Everything put back on and in place. Hope on and nothing. Not even a click. Put charger on battery and tinker around checking wires and fuses. Few minutes later and spins like dickens and fires right up. Leave charger on for a good full charge. Next day (with no charger on) have nothing. Put charger on and 1 minute later fires right up.
Had wife mowing lawn. She gets done and puts mower in shed. I go out to clean deck and mower, and nothing from starter. Put charger on and 1 minute later fires right up.
What should I be looking for. Larger CCA battery? I think I have that in there now.
Thanks
