    Carburetor 1

    With all due respect, the tech that worked on this has 30+ years experience. I would assume he was thorough.I did just bring him the carb. I removed and replaced it myself. Hooked everything up and replaced the gaskets. I'm thinking of a fuel delivery problem. I tried draining the tank. Do I...

    Fastrak Cuts Like Garbage

    You are right. The FasTrak is a residential mower with commercial hydros. Not designed for 6 acres. You need an X-One or a Super Z for this amount of grass.

    Mower starts runs stalls

    What about a sticking float in the carb bowl? Sounds like it uses up what's in the bowl, then the float sticks in the up position. A bumpy push to the garage may be enough to unstuck the float. Or there is debris in the bowl. Just my 2 cents.

    Gravely Walkbehind Mower

    Hello all. I am looking for a Gravely walkbehind mower. It has the high bicycle type rear wheels and the swivel front wheels. I know they are obsolete, but I can keep it running. I need one for a predominantly swampy back yard. Prefer a running unit. Anyone have one they want to part with?

    Made stupid mistake! What would my solution be to do now?

    I work for a Gravely dealer and we recommend 15w50 full synthetic motor oil in the hydros. No blends. Here in the deep south, climate has a lot to do with the weights. If you look in a typical owners manual, it may say different, as the manual was written for where it was manufactured - up...

    Engine Adjustment

    Is there any way of moving the engine forward on its mounts? I am trying to get a little extra bite to the deck belt. I am having belt slip, and yes, I have the OEM spec belt on it (just changed it). I was considering unbolting the engine and slotting the mounting holes, or shimming the front...

    MTD Rear Tires

    My MTD has a rear tire leak. Is it possible to put a tube in these? The tire assembly is a bit "pricey". The size on the tire is 20x8x8. If not, do I have to have new tires mounted on the rim like a car tire? Model# 13AF693G118 Serial# 1C142B70342

    MTD Yard Man Deck Problem

    Hello everyone. New to the forums. I came here to get help with my 42" MTD lawn tractor. My deck seems to be crooked. I noticed it when I changed my deck belt. the "driver's side" is forward of the "passenger side" by a lot. This causes the belt to slip when mowing. I can take the belt off by...
