Engine wouldn't start and then after I finally got it started it wouldn'p pick up RPM, only Idle.
Seemed like a fuel problem so I replaced the filters-no luck.
Pulled the fuel line and ran a wire through it-no luck.
Pulled the shut off valve-the O ring had come apart and partially blocked the valve limiting the flow of fuel. Dealer didn't have a big enough (fat enough) O ring so I went back to E and E where they rebuilt the power steering arm on my MF 230 and they supplied the right one.
Back in business now and getting my mowing done on the CRP acreage.

38 hours on the new engine and looks good!
