What I meant was that the tractor is acting like the PTO is engaged because it won't stay running if I am out of the seat.
The engine won't crank if either PTO switches are on: Correct
Engine quits when I get off the seat with PTOs off: Wrong--should stay running
Engine cranks when I am out of the seat but doesn't fire: Wrong--should fire and run
All these problems did happen at the same time
Do you guys know off hand if the voltage regulator is the same for the BG and P220 engines? Mine has a Performer 220 with the regulator mounted in the engine cover near the coil. As both mentioned, it does seem to need a new regulator so that is something I will try.
I did swap the front and rear PTO switch with my spare one (new), it didn't resolve any of the issues.
