Rover Rancher 17/42 (13AV90KS333) Questions & Answers

There is not enough information provided in relation to the model of the mower. Ranchers were produced in friction drive, variable transmission and hydrostatic models.

It’s a rancher 1742 and it was purchased in 2013. Checking the user manual it refers to hydrostatic drive. So the pedal controls the speed going forward and in reverse. Hope this helps

Dont know much regarding the mowers but if it has a fuel filter maybe check its not blockd or try purchasing your fuel else where to test if its the issue

G'day Bob, mines a 20 hp twin, the plugs on mine are either side of the motor and in plain view. Check that choke is not stuck in the closed position

Hi Roscoe,

Thanks for your help. much appreciated.

Unfortunately the problem was the coil, no idea of the cost as the dealer is ordering one for my Ride on.

Cheers

Bob

I haven't had my Rancher for two years now but if I recall correctly, the centre nut holds a hub onto the axle with a tapered fitting. To get the wheel off I don't think I removed that nut but undid four studs that held the rim onto the hub. Of course yours may be different but I do remember that I took the wheels into have the tyres replaced and there was no drama removing them.

Loosen the nut and go cut some grass it should loosen but don't cut too much grass.
