    Gas Caps do seal out any condensation from entering the gas tank, despite the arguments here saying they do not

    From you other long post here, it sounds like you have a lot of knowledge about how gasoline (more, it's the ethanol) attracts water. I don't agree w/you that covering a vented gas cap completely with plastic wrap & then rubber bands won't keep moisture out. It HAS to. I, unfortunately...

    Gas Caps do seal out any condensation from entering the gas tank, despite the arguments here saying they do not

    The gas cap is believed by some that even when screwed on tight, still allows for condensation to enter. There is an article on IFishFishing Forum, & I'll quote from it: There isn't enough air volume within a tank to hold much vapor. On average, tanks are half full, further reducing volume...

    Age old question, Winter Storage?

    The worst thing you can do is to leave untreated, ethanol garbage gas in your tractor for the winter. The advice given by some here to do so is just asking for problems. The fuel will create condensation (water), turn toxic and the ethanol in it will eat away at rubber & carburetor parts...

    Here is the scan of the COMPLETE PAGE 23. I can't get p. 12 to scan, but I manually wrote the instructions in the prior post.

    You are totally correct. My tires have printed right on the side: 10 psi rear & 14 psi front.

    You are confusing things. I did not state the deck will not lower less than 4". I was talking about the height lever of the deck, which has number 2 - 6, which are not inch numbers, but simply numbers Craftsman decided to use to indicate lowest to highest. In other words, putting that lever...

    If you're going to post p. 23, then post the entire page, not just part of it, as it doesn't show the entire page or its instructions. As far as your assertion that the Deck wheels "can't be in same hole & adjust just off ground in all cases", is clearly wrong as per the manual. Page 12, " 2...

    Your accusation of my being here "to start a fight" is baseless. If asking questions is starting a fight, you're not only completely wrong, but it seems you enjoy abusing and degrading others. YOU should be ashamed of making caustic, groundless & unfounded statements like, "If you don't feel...

    Craftsman how to level the mower deck

    The anti-scalp wheel bracket is not bent. However, it seems like one is a bit shorter than the other one, which could account for trying to put both wheels in the same slot (as manual states should be done) is not possible, because the shorter bracket hits up against the deck. I believe I had...

    QUESTIONS: You state: "The deck is leveled left right using the height adjusters on the hangers that hold the deck This is not what the manual says: (1) p. 12 never uses the term "height adjustors". So, please use the terminology the mfr. uses, or explain fully what the terms you use...

    Yes the "instructions" are there, but you miss what it states, "..Installing gauge wheel in same adjustment hole." meaning the left wheel & the right wheel are to be in the same adjustment hole, which makes total sense. Glad you are able to make the MTD deck spindle brake pads. With my...
