2010 Kioti DS 4110 starting issues

[Baumgardner]

I have a 2010 DS 4110.....I am having issues getting it to stay running. Only way to keep the tractor running is to hold the key all the way over to the right and hold it there. If you do not hold the key and it goes back to what should be run position the tractor will die....Any suggestions on where to start looking for the issue please? Any direction or help would be greatly appreciated.

The obvious thing that i feel that the level that hold the key in position is broken.. I don't know if that part is available at the market, you can still try.
If that's not the problem ( chances of which is very less ) let me know I'll tryna look in to it

Thank you sir, greatly appreciate it...So it may be in my best interest to purchase a new ignition switch.

Thank you. Probably should just get new ignition switch

Recommend you try posting in the Kioti forum for other folks to see. If you're holding it all the way to the right in the "start" position, it's not really "running" in so much as it is "trying to start". You'll burn up the starter that way eventually.

Recommend checking your fuel system to ensure it's getting fuel where it needs to go. Filters, injectors, fuel pump, etc. The ignition switch may be the culprit, but I suspect something else is amiss.

Sounds as if the key switch is bad or the injection pump shut off solenoid is bad..
U can get a shop manual off ebay to help w/ the diagnostics.. & how-to's..
