In Reply to: JD STX 38 mower - turn key, it clicks but won't start. posted by Jason on Thursday, April 10, 2008:

My STX38 is running now. I had to replace the starter unit (together with the bendix pinion gear). The one way bearing of the old starter was stripped and did not have enough torque to turn the engine over.

But the new starter had hard time turning the engine over. So I removed the spark plug and turn over the engine by hand 5-6 revolutions to "free" it up - then it started without any problem.
