He mentioned that it's probably the wiring because 'a mechanic' looked at it and noticed that the front pto still spins, so the engine must still turn over

Boy, good mechanic he had look at it. Considering the front PTO would spin even if the motor was stuck. Wow! I think we all agree you made the right choice. Keep your eyes open and something will pop up. Springs around the corner (Yes!!) and some cubs and even tillers will be coming up for sale soon, I'm sure.........
