John Deere 14SB Transmission shifter??
Comments (1)If you haven't yet verified the cable action at the transmission lever- that would be your next step. These transmissions are fairly easily removed, though a grimy job inside. Parts should be serviceable inside the trans yet. Your other option may be to simply loosen the cable tension so that the you are able to feather the drive control and give the belt less tension- thus less instant torque and speed....See MoreJohn Deere 14SB
Comments (1)First confirm that the cable is working freely and is connected. Weasel your way into where the bottom cable is attached to verify....See MoreJohn Deere 14SB
Comments (6)Those are just links to manuals that can be ordered. Have you contacted John Deere through their website? Or just called a dealer? Either one should have the information you need and will be able to tell you if a mulch plug was made for that mower and more importantly whether parts and manuals are available. As to whether you can operate it without a plug or chute I would have to assume it works like most other mowers and the answer is yes. Cut grass should exit the hole. Seems obvious but I may be missing something....See MoreRepair or junk a John Deere 14 SB mower?
Comments (6)By all means save this Mower with the Kawasaki engine! I've just saved ours, and when I got to looking into engine wearout, I was shocked to see that the valve adjustments held steady for 15 years, and are within .0005 of what the spec is! That is unbelievable, even cars don't hold tolerances that well as they undergo a lot of wear and tear. Your problem is probably the same exact same one that I had. It throws you for a loop for sure. MOST LIKELY it is your carburetor MAIN JET, that you need to actually unscrew and clean with nylon Fishing Line. Yes! My Jet actually looked great, with my eyesight, it had a very round opening and didn't look like any junk was blocking it. BUT ... there was uniform build-up of gasoline residues, that I was able to rough-out, but using fishing line and just running it through the jet maybe 10 times, and when I saw the opening getting larger, I knew I was onto something! The Fishing Line won't damage the soft brass jet, so don't worry about enlarging the opening too much. But once you get this back in, and your Carb back on, you will be amazed! As you throttle-up and then Engage the Blade Clutch, the Engine will pull strongly and NOT Stall-Out !!! Oh - There is NO replacement or rebuilt carburetor available, so treat it well, you can probably re-use the same gaskets, and maybe a little bit of gasket sealer -Automotive type is fine. Good Luck !...See Moredpankonin
