Friends -- I believe I heard that an SB14 blade adapter (Part # M114679) would fit on a JX75 machine in lieu of the BBC. Can anyone confirm this? If so, I need to buy one so I can get this machine going! Thanks

Thanks JoeM and StarTech. I'm going to remove the BBC, since I don't really need it anyway. I'll try to sell the BBC Cable and activation lever == which is way expensive new -- about $140!

Hello; I just picked up a JE75 mower, Serial # 035298, with a DOM of 061500 (which I interpret to mean June 15, 2000. The previous owner hit a rock and broke the lower BBC clutch piece, and I mean he broke it in half when I took it off today. Engine seems to run fine, no vibration at all but...

Thanks for these responses. I'm pretty confident these pins are pressed in, so what I wanted to do is remove the metal gear off the bald tires, and put the gear on the other wheels that and use 3 bolts to hold the gears onto the wheel. The challenge is prying the pins off and not breaking the...

I've got a nice Toro 16785 front wheel drive mower with a 2 stroke engine. Back wheels have plenty of tread, and the front wheels are bald. I'm thinking of swapping the metal drive gears from the back to the front...but the pins holding the gears to the wheels are doing their job well. I don't...

Thanks StarTech! I'll need to take one of the bearings to Napa or some other store to get the ID and OD since I don't have a set of calipers. I'm guessing your correct as to the 1/2 ID ones you posted. Update: I was able to get a set of calipers at NAPA and confirmed 1/2 ID and 1 1/8 OD for...

Hello; I've got a 2008 Cub Cadet walk behind mover, Model 12AE18M3056 that has good tread on the front tires, but the wheel bearings (2 per wheel) are shot. They have a flange to butt them against the plastic wheel body, and the spindle fits through both inner and outer bearing before thre nut...

Thanks Rivets! That's probably gotta be my next step.

Hello; The small jet on my 2-stroke snowblower is lost, and I need a replacement. I can't find a part number, but do have a graphic of the part. This is off a Tecumseh Model TH098SA and I believe the carb is # 640092A 5261. The jet is #20 in the attached graphic. Does anyone have a part...

Thanks for the quick response. After I posted my question, I went out and put the rubber disk on the driveway and let it get hot, which increased it's stretch-ability. I was able to then put it onto the plastic wheel after that. I'm guessing your plan will also work!

Hello all; I've got the replacement rubber, yet am wondering if anyone can guide me on how to put the new rubber disc onto the plastic wheel? There is not enough room between the body and the hex shaft to take the plastic wheel off the shaft, so I either have to rotate the rubber onto the...

Thank you Rivets! I'm gonna have to call them, because the tag on my mower only has my model as 34345, with a serial number of 343451105618.... The Troybilt site indicates that the model number will start with either a 11 or 12.....

Anyone know where I can get an Operators or Repair manual for this mower? I need to replace the drive disc and blade (both of which I have the part numbers). The mower is from 1998. Thanks much.

Thanks Scrubcadet10 and tom3; When it would die, it would sputter then die. I would quickly check the fuel filter and see gas there, so I would then hook up my spark tester and check for spark. This afternoon, I checked the valves and made slight adjustments. Then I started it and it ran for...

Got a engine model 122607 0118 on a Toro 20039 mower that starts easily, runs for about 25 minutes and then stops. Has gas, as I can see plenty going through the filter, and I've already rebuild the carb, and checked the float for pin holes. Already replaced the gas cap. Has spark after it dies...
