Just had the exact same issue as you are having. In fact I took my gator into the dealership and they said that my engine needs replaced. I had no issues with the gator before it was stored for the winter. Tried to start the gator in the early spring and battery was dead, replaced the battery. Still would not start. Changed spark plugs, nothing, cracked the fuel line and was getting fuel. Nothing wrong with the air intake. I order the ignition module from Gator Parts Store part #AM132577 John Deere Module is the description. It bolts on with 2 10mm bolts and plugs in to a wiring harness. The gator started right up. The JD mechanic said it cannot be the ignition module, "those never go bad and there is know way to test them, it's not the module". I am so glad I read an earlier post that said the mechanics would say that, he did! Any way, hope this helps.

Well, I ordered an ignition module (John Deere Module AM132577) found it at Gator Parts Store for $284.07(Cheapest I could find on the internet). I received it today and put it on the gator. The module is bolted on with 2 #10mm bolts, unplugged the old one and plugged the new one in and presto I HAVE A RUNNING GATOR!!!!! As soon as I turned the key the gator fired right up, just as it did last fall when I put it away for the winter.

I still cannot believe that this was the issue. Dealership said I had to replace the engine! If it hadn't been for the multiple post of the same issue I probably would have replaced the engine. Thank God for the internet and the handy/shade tree guys/gals on these sites! It is a pricey piece but way cheaper than a new issue. Hope this helps someone!
