    X-One rough idle

    I pulled the carb and took it apart and sprayed every port with throttle body cleaner and air nozzle this weekend with no change. I can barely apply a little bit of choke and it evens out the throttle. I mentioned earlier that I could hold my finger on the throttle and it evens out as well...

    X-One rough idle

    yep, guilty as charged. Still kicking myself over it. What else am I missing on cleaning the carb? I already removed it, pulled both jets and cleaned them as well as their ports. I've cleaned and rebuilt my atv carbs in the past, but this one is a little different.

    X-One rough idle

    Welp, I've had my X-One for 5 years now, bought brand new. When it was put away for the winter last year time got away from me and it didn't get winterized. Here it is spring time now starting to mow and the first time I tried to start it was hard to start, but eventually fired. I've mowed a...

    Jack lift for X-One and Super Z

    A little late but when I lift the front of my X-One to change blades and clean out deck I have a 2 ton chain hoist I installed in my garage that I hook around the front crossmember and lift the front end. If messing with the rear, I just use a floor jack to lift back end up, then put a jack...

    Deck discharge

    Hey guys. Bought a new X-One earlier this year and not real pleased with the clippings discharge. Was thinking of cutting this extra triangle piece (circled in red) off the side of the deck. Wondering if this may help open it up a little more for better clipping discharge. It won't hurt the...

    Back on a Hustler

    Well I'm back on a Hustler. I had a Z4 a couple yrs ago then switched to a Scag Turf Tiger. Started having some issues with the Turf Tiger as it was getting up there in hours. Sold it a few weeks back. Tired of always having used stuff I broke down and bought a brand new X-One from local...

    Info on Tank LZ

    Hey guys. In the market for a new zero turn as I just sold my old Turf Tiger. Stopped in local dealer and looked at the Cub Cadet Tank LZ KW with 60" deck and Kawi engine. Really like the deck construction, it is similar to the Scag sloped deck. Not a fan of the deck foot pedal being on lefts...

    Looking at a S200XT

    Thinking of selling my older Turf Tiger and getting something new. Stopped at the local dealer and was checking out the S200XT w/ 61" deck. They had one with a Briggs engine and one with a Kaw. I've always had Kaw engines on my mowers, but dealer was really talking up the new briggs...

    Turf Tiger oil change

    Needing to do an oil change on my TT with Kaw 29 dfi engine. We just moved and I can't find my manual at the moment. What oil do these engines call for? I bought it last year and it was serviced before I bought it, so this will be my first service on it, would have liked to have done it...

    Velocity deck quick question

    Just bought a Turf Tiger with 61" Velocity Deck. It has a discharge baffle on it. I removed the discharge shield but wondering what is the purpose of the baffle? My previous 2 machines didn't have this baffle with same deck.

    Tiger Cat oil change

    Not time for it yet but as I was looking my mower over the other night it got me to thinking. The Kaw FX730 has a nice and easy oil quick drain line on back side of engine. However the filter is on front side with no drain hole nearby. My question is how the hell are you supposed to change...

    New to me Tiger Cat

    Some of you may have seen my post while looking for a new Scag. The 12' Tiger Cat with 61" deck I ended up with is pretty nice. However I noticed earlier that with the deck up in transport position the right deck guide wheel rubs against the front caster wheel while going forward. Is that how...
