I have an 8 h.p. Briggs & Stratton engine on my riding mower. The problem is that it hardly turns over when trying to start it. It behaves like it has a nearly dead battery. I have even tried to start it using my truck battery and booster cables connected right at the starter.It makes a few slow turns and then nothing. If I disconnect for a few minutes and then retry, the same thing happens, it will just turn over a few times before dieing. I can turn the engine over freely by hand so I know it is not seizing up. Maybe the starter has some high resistance in it. What should I measure for resistance if I wanted to check it? Any other suggestions?
