    Help with 42" Cub Cadet 341 Snowblower

    I was blowing snow the other night and suddenly the auger quit turning on the blower. No clunks or noise. The shaft behind the sprocket box turns but the auger doesn't. I'm assuming it's something in the sprocket box. My question is, do I need to replace the whole sprocket box (very expensive)...

    What is so bad about Kawasaki Engines?

    What do people specifically have against the Kawasaki? I just bougtht a Hustler Fastrac with a 24 hp Kawi on it. Every other Hustler machine the dealer had also had Kawi engines? If they are so bad, why would Hustler risk their reputation on them?

    Please post DETAIL about your problems!

    I joined this forum after receiving an email that it existed. I used it to get advice on mower problems. I admit that I have not been on for some time but now that I am again, I'm seeing a lot of frustration from the guys that know and want to help. They can't help trouble shoot your problem...

    How do I get the electric clutch of my Cub 2186

    I got the bolt out and it won't budge so I took the hood and grill off in order to get a clutch puller on it. The exhaust guard is in the way so I kind of angled the puller so I wouldn't have to remove the entire exhaust. I tightened the puller to the point of bending the pully and that dang...

    Another rusty bolt problem

    I have a 6' 3-point King Kutter mower that I purchased used. It was time to change blades and they won't even budge with a 1/2" DeWalt impact wrench. I have never seen bolts rusted on this bad.

Maybe this is the wrong spot to post this but: What I would like to see is a sticky photo thread that would identify all the different lawn weeds and the best way to get rid of them. This way people can just go to one...
