    John Deere 318 continues to surge.

    Well after studying the forum concerning surging on the 318 I took the intake manifold out and used gasket sealer to stop what I thought was a leak Everything went back together as it should but I still have the surge. Can someone point me in another direction to address this problem. Thanks, Mike

    Valves need constant adjustment

    I'm working on my SIL's White riding mower with the B&S 31P engine. I have adjusted the valves twice now and it continues to go out of adjustment. I know that I'm tightening the adjustment screw and nut down according to specs so why do they continue to loosen? Should I put some LockTite on them...

    Troy-Bilt surging problems

    I have a Troy-Bilt 21" walk behind mower with a Honda motor. There is no throttle on this mower so there is no way to adjust the speed. The mower surges all the time but seems to cut just fine. Is this the way it's supposed to run. I'm used to mowers with throttle control and a choke that isn't...

    New John Deere 318

    I just bought a new (to me) 318 with 819 hours on it. Is there anything that I need to know about this tractor? I changed the oil, new filter, new air filter, greased it and put in new plugs so everything is ready to go. Thanks in advance

    I'm working on the above mower with a B&S 16 HP twin model #402707013101 and I can't get the battery to charge. The battery reads 12.7 volts while running but it will decrease as the mower runs.

    I'm in the process of getting the above tractor back into mowing shape. I've completed everything but I'm having a problem. The steering wheel is very hard to turn despite the fact that I have greased and oiled everything that could be greased and oiled including the wheel spindles. Does anyone...

    Belt prices really "belt" me

    I have a Cub Cadet Commercial M72 Tank and the price of belts is ridiculous. $83 dollars for the mower deck and $90 dollars for the PTO belt. Yes, I do buy them at NAPA for about 1/5 of what Cub Cadet wants but does anyone know why they charge so much? I thought things for my John Deere were...
