I am almost positve that ajusting the carburator will fo the trick but I do not know how to do it. The man I bought it from tryed to ajsut it but he did not succeed. en-us Sun, 13 Apr 2008 17:46:53 GMT http://www.myfrugallife.com/post21951609_farmer5.html <p>I have a 11 year old craftsman lawn tractor.&nbsp; Ran and started perfect one day, next day I turned the key just to turn on the elecctrical and flicked the light switch on to see if the lights worked.&nbsp; When I flicked the lights the electrical system went totally.&nbsp; No electrical works.&nbsp; It is not the fuse nor is it the battery.&nbsp; I wanted to buy the wire harness but they stoped making it.&nbsp; I callled Craftsman and they are very reluctant to help.&nbsp; What do I do?</p>
