I need the advice of ya'll again.. Ive got a toro zmaster (commercial ztr) that has an 18 horse kohler on it (105 hrs). This spring when I was servicing it I was going to check the plug. The plug wire is very hard to grab at the end (if you have ever worked on one of these you will know what i mean) and i ended up yankin the metal part that goes on the plug off the wire. Asked a few friends if I could just re-crimp it on there and they said it would work. Now when I go to "cold start" it is very hard to start. It spudders and spudders and finally will run. Each time I go to mow it seems to get harder and harder to start, but once its running i dont have any problems.
I am wondering if #1- my crimp job is not good enough and i need a new coil/plugwire #2 the gap I set the coil has changed or was wrong to begin with? #3 it something different.
