Craftsman LT1000 won't start

Hi, Everybody!

OK, here's my issue for THIS post. I have a Craftsman LT1000, about 8 years old (Briggs engine). It has been having an issue wherein the starter wouldn't spin up. Watching it while turning the key (with a fully-charged battery), the starter gear just kind of twitches, and goes "bzzrt". Consulting the local mower shop led to consensus that I had a bad starter. So, I ordered a new one. It arrived all new and shiny, and I said, "Yay!" Took it out, put it on, and it DID THE SAME ^$#@&*% THING. Anybody have any ideas about this? I gots grass what needs mowin'!

Thanks!

Chuck
