I did some mowing today. Ran good for about 15 to 20 minutes. Took fuel lines loose and watched what was happening. I even loosened the fuel cap still died. Fuel filter has fuel in it, not much. I did take the line loose from filter to pump and may be not pulling fuel the best. Going to check if...

I had a lot of odd problems with the same mower and my safety switches were the problem. My pto switch was even bad. Hope you work it out.

This is my sons mower. The mower would start fine and he would mow 30 to 45 minutes and it would almost bog down and die. He would turn the pto off and idle to park it, it would not take any throttle or it would die. So he checked the spark plugs and said they looked terrible. Changed them out...

I got all the new parts and got it put together Saturday. Thanks for all the help. Running good and mowing like a champ.

Well it wouldn't be right to not tell the tale of my mistakes. I found my harmonic balance puller and attempted to pull the pulley off after heating and letting it set with kroll setting on it for a day and half. I bent the pulley... Ok, got the torch and started heating the pulley, beat the...

I got the deck out. The bolt holding the blade with the bad spindle is stuck, I got my ace/ox torch out and heated it up, it will not budge! I am using an 18volt impact on the highest setting. The other 2 blades came off without any problem. Didn't have to use any heat. This is very frustrating...

I have the deck unhooked from the mower and I will jack the mower up and pull the deck out where I can get to everything. Thanks for the help.

Thanks, sometimes my brain doesn't work right!

The spindle housing is bolted to the mower deck, not enough room to remove the bolts. The pulley will have to come up, I will try some heat on it today. Thanks for the bearing size.

I have a Ferris IS1500Z. The bearings went out on my left spindle and I cant get the pulley to come off, its rusted good. It has been sitting with penetrating oil, I have beat, pried, and repeated many times. Anyone have some suggestions I would appreciate the help, thanks

Thanks for the reply, I got it off and back on finally. My hands and fingers don't work like they used too. It was a chore though. Thanks for helping.

Can some one give me some advice on removing the starter on this mower. I can't get to the rear bolt. It has a Kawasaki 25hp FH721V motor on it.

Was going to mow for the last time this year but my mower, a ferris 1500z will not start. It ran and started up fine the last time it was used. I have fuel in the fuel bowel and spark at the plugs. There is no fuel getting to the plugs. I sprayed carb cleaner directly into the carb, took the...

My son bought a used 5hp murray push mower. Has a 5hp briggs & stratton moter. It runs great when you mow on level ground. Will go dead on a hill. Has anybody had this problem before and or what did you do to fix it? Thanks
