Mower is a xt2 kohler engine smart choke. Turn key and fan belt spins just half a rotation. Replaced battery, new solenoid, and new starter. Checked compression. Take off either spark plugs and kicks over. Adjusted valves and still wont kick over. Held open smart choke and shot some starter fluid in. Fan belt spins when i hold the key on. If I spray starter fluid in and hold the smart choke open it runs. Let go of smart choke it dies again. Not sure what I am missing. Engine only turns with starter fluid. Thanks for any help
