Kohler 24hp engine on Husqvarna RZ5424 won't start

I have a Husqvarna RZ5424 with a 24 hp Kohler engine, It always starts right up and did right until this happened. I had finished mowing a large part of my yard and was headed to park my mower. I got off to close the gate before continuing on but didn't set the parking brake, therefore the kill switch killed it from full throttle and it gave one large backfire. I attempted to restart it and it was a no go, It cranked and turned over strong but no hint of actually firing off and attempting to start. I let it sit overnight in case it had flooded. Same result. Air filter is clean, fuel is clean, spark plug fires, The engine has less than 30 hours on it. Could this be a timing issue?
