Sadly the battery box is not removable..Gonna see if i can maybe loosen the transaxle a bit and drop it down as sugested. thanks

I need to replace the hydro fan and there doesn't seem to be any room to get to it. If the battery tray was removable it would be easy to get to, but the tray doesn't seem to be removable. Does the trans axle have to be removed to replace the fan? or is there another way to get to it? I've read...

I finally got them to seal up.. I sanded the mounting pad on the tank. I'll look into getting some magic lube..I noticed on amazon there is 2 different versions. A red tube (silicone) and blue tube (teflon) which version would be best? thanks

It's not the gas cap..I checked closely and it definitely looks like its coming from the base of the carburetor on the inbound side. I did snug up the screws good and tight..maybe I overdid it. If I take it back apart can the gasket and diaphragm be reused or would I need new again? thanks everyone

I am working on 2 push mowers. 1 with a 3.5hp and the other is 5hp. Both needed a carb clean and new diaphragm and gasket..No problem I thought. Seemed like an easy enough job. I pulled the carb's, cleaned them, installed new diaphragm and gasket, and o-ring that goes to intake tube. Problem is...

I'm working on a TB30R for my neighbor and cant seem to figure out how to keep the deck belt from being thrown off/shredded. It has a floating idler that has a bolt and spacer that hangs down from the bracket its attached to that's supposed to hold the belt on but within seconds of installing a...

With the mower not running have someone move the deck engagement lever while you look at the left side of the deck. There is a floating idler pulley that has some sort of handle looking piece on it that sometimes can hang on stuff and cause the blades not to be able to engage.

Hello, After reading lots of good reviews on the speed feed head I decided to buy one..Being a cheapskate I went to ebay and bought a china knockoff of a speed feed 400. The problem I'm having is as soon as I first installed the head and fired up the trimmer it sucked the preinstalled .095...

I am trying to replace the bearings in a spindle for my Deutz-Allis 613h. Whats the best way to get the old bearings out? Is there a video or guide somewhere that shows how to rebuild this type of spindle? thanks

Hello, I mow 4 properties a week that takes me about 3.5 hours total on my 42" Troybilt. I want to step up to a ztr and have been looking through craigslist. My budget is $2000-$2500 max for a used machine. I found a 2004 Dixie Chopper Silver Eagle LT2400 50" with a 20hp kohler command with...

Hello, The engine on my old mower (Simplicity 5116) finally retired so while i was searching the interwebs for a used replacement I came across a 2006 Troy-Bilt Bronco model 13AO77TG766 for a decent price (cheaper then just buying a used engine). The mower doesn't have it's original engine...
