I bought a riding mower for my daughter and son-in-law for a house warming gift when they bought their home. My son-in-law is working 7-12's so my daughter asked for help winterizing the mower.
OMG :thumbdown:, the oil change plug is located in such a sad spot that it went all over the front of the mower deck and made a mess. I am thinking of buying a 4" nipple and elbow with a ball valve to eliminate this poor design but all ready filled the 17 HP B&S with oil. So now looking in the manual there is NO reference to thread size for the drain plug.
Anyone done a mod on this could help me out with the thread size?
