I was using my 860 yesterday around the house and and something weird happened. When I shut the key off, it sounded like the engine ran backwards for a second or two. Made an loud disconcerting sound when it did.
After that it wouldn't start. Wouldn't even fire. Occasionally it would backfire out the carb and gas was visibly running out of the carb. I let it sit for a couple hours and tried again and it was the same.
Haven't tried it again today.
I just recently got this tractor running again after it had sat for many years. I have probably only had it running 20-30 minutes total since I got it running and had been running it close to an hour when I shut it off.
I guess my question is this, has anyone ever heard of a tractor running backwards and can that damage something that will render the engine unstartable?
I had been starting right up.
