That's what it was. Thanks again.

Thanks. I'll check it out.

I have a ferris 5900030 Kawasaki FS600V-GS01 Twin Full disclosure, I was working on another forum with this project The members were extremely helpful but the site has become unreachable to me. Getting a 404 error. I'm not sure if the site is temporarily or permanently down. But I digress. I...

I have a 917.288570 for which I need a deck. Part number on the deck is 532425383. I'm looking for a used one and was wondering if anyone knows of any other makes that would fit the bill as well. I recently installed a scott's deck on a john deere that was an exact match. I'm hoping to find out...

You've read my mind. Exactly what I'm looking for. Thank you.

I have a YTH21K46-96045002100 tractor. DOM 2009. A part of the blade engagement clutch broke. They sell it as an assembly. Part# 532406563. Apparently, it's discontinued. I found some other part numbers that look very similar but obviously different in some ways. I'm wondering if someone has...

Gotchya. Again, this was a long one so sorry if this was also covered and I don't remember, but did you do a leak down 1/2 way down and at the bottom of the stroke?

This one is a stumper. What about the safety circuit? Can that end up intermittent and cause this? Or would that sound more rough rather than the smooth drop you have in RPM. Both the hand levers and the blade require bum in the seat. Have you tried to disable the seat safety temporarily? I...

This is awfully reminiscent of a fuel starvation issue under load. I'd be curious to find out how TobyU's suggestions panned out. Whether or not that throttle plate was actuating when under load. Could it be as simple as a loose or poorly positioned throttle cable anchor point? I read through...

Have you checked the wiring diagram for the unit?

I'm sure there is a diode though. Is there a chance sending current the wrong way could have fried the diode?

I'll keep an eye on that. Thanks. If I remember correctly, I don't think this one had a regulator. But I'll keep an eye on the ignition.

I just want to emphasize that I did not install this battery... but am ashamed to admit that I did lay eyes on it. I was able to stop by and take another look at this today and wouldn't you know it? I took my frustration for not noticing it out on my friend for installing it backward. I recon he...

Should I take an amp measurement on the positive starter wire? If so, what amperage am I hoping to see?

Stupid falls right into my wheelhouse. So thank you. I'm not near the machine now but I will verify.
