Carb is dirty and before you tear it really apart take the fuel bowl off if it has one and clean it real good and blow the dirt out of the fuel jet which is the bolt that holds the bowl on .That may be most of your problem. Drain the old gas and replace with fresh as well. Won't hurt to run some cleaner through as well.

Your spindle may be seized. try turning the side by hand. Try moving it back and forth. If there is movement then your bearing in your spindle is bad. I f no movement than check under your deck to make sure nothing is stuck holding the blade from turning. You will probably have to replace your belt as well

This sounds like the carb is plugged. Sometimes fuel thickens and makes globs...

If you verified the fuel flow to the inlet of the carb, then you need to take the carb off and open it up....
So, what needs to happen is you blow out all of the passageways with carb cleaner.

Any adjustable jets: make note of the position it is in, and FINGER TIGHT turn it clockwise until it closes (typically 1 to 1 1/2 turns) SOOOOO, you can set this jet back to the same positon....when finished blowing everything out, bottom the jet and back out the number of turns out, noted for that jet.

Open the float chamber, and clean as necessary, Inspect the float adjustment: invert the carb, and observe the angle of the float, relative to the carb body.... Usually almost parallel, but not necessarily.
Inspect the inlet valve, and clean those areas...

I usually use all new gaskets and valves, but if you are not a carb person, cleaning is effective and I think old gaskets may be okay, if not torn or damaged.

First thing to check is manual start with a rope if there is one. If you can start it, then it is the battery or cables. If you can not start it then check to see if the blades and or transmission is disengaged. If they are then the engine is seized.

HI, I have a Cub Cadet 50" cut I had a similar problem and I had to change the spring on the idler pulley it had lost tension and replacing it solved my problem. Not familiar with your mower but if it has the same principles as mine you might want to try that.
