Your starter gear may not be retracting, check it for a broken spring. Hal

the spindle will retract its on a cork screw , when i turn it on off position it comes down , when you start it it engages the starter in the run and start position , it should not engage in run position. new silonoid new ign john deere says starters fine was tested . no one has heard of this before . can it be the pto sending juice through something , no clue here thank you for your response

Sounds like your switch keeps sending battery voltage to your starter after the engine starts.
Can you post a picture of the starter switch? Is there a run & start position on the starter switch? Hal

yes there is off run start position it tries to start in run position i have a new switch has 5 connects on bottom of it. cant be screwed up in the pluging in of it . can something be putting voltage through the switch should it start in run position

I think the problem is in your switch so when your engine starts and is in the run position there shouldn't be any battery voltage feeding the starter. Hal

You may be better off to use a toggle switch for the ignition and a starter button for starting the engine. Hal
