If you ever come across your MT125 engine will not turn over and you know your battery is good. Check your wiring at your starter. There is a wire that attaches to the starter that is not held on by a bolt or nut. It just slips on. I ran over some small tree limbs and one of them must have pulled it loose. I didn’t realize it until the next day when I tried to start it and it would not turn over. I luckily I saw the wire dangling down away from the starter. I would have been really embarrassed if I brought to the service guy.

Another addition to help any troubleshooters that find this post later on. If your tractor will turn over and but will not stay running and you diagnose as the fuel shut off solenoid, that part from the dealer is around $200. Once cross referencing i found the same part for around $20 (Part # Solenoid 119-233-77932).
