Check the PTO fuse and all the fuses. Could be the PTO switch as the start circuit goes through the PTO switch. The faint click you are earing is probably the fuel solenoid in the carburetor.

We never bought the original clutches from DC bought the Xtreme Clutches never had to replace one of them yet been using them for years. Much cheaper than the original. https://xtremeope.com/p/xtreme

Ok Don't blame you for that.

Hate to see them go I own 3 Running 2 not running and two junkers. 3 of the running ones are 1997 1999 and 2000. Year models they just don't die. The other two fixer uppers are 2010- and 1999-year models.

We all have days like that no problem

Good to know thanks

Why are you replacing the heads?

Post model and spec no of the engine.

Have to put the mower on jack stands and release the hydros. To release the hydros, find the 5/8 headed bolt heads with holes through them and open about two or so turns. Start the engine Move the controls back and forth 8 to 10 times. Close the release valves lower the mower to the ground and...

At an auction you are buying a pig in a poke.

Was at where I use to work and they are telling me the parts will still be available through Rino Ag. a Division of Alamo Group, Was told you can potentially buy a new mower for 50% off.

The new style ones are not rebuildable or greaseable. I usually replace the bearings in the old-style spindles. Looks like some of the ones listed are rebuildable and greaseable. Be sure and get the long shaft one for the center spindle.

Let's see a new mower 19 20 HP 42 inch deck gear drive retails for $2200. How long will it last. 10 years? $2200 divided By10 = $220 depreciation per year. So, if you get it when it is 5 years old is it worth $1100 resale value?

That is where you have show them what you have done to it to show it is worth the $600 plus the $150 you paid for it. I would not put that much money in a low end MTD CC Husqvarna or Craftsman mower.

What I have started doing. I make a work order showing what I have done to it and what it would cost to fix it. Let them see what it would cost to fix it as compared to one they would buy that needed that work done to it.

I buy trade and sell mowers. I fix everything that needs fixing. I take the price I gave for the mower the price it took to repair it and add a little more to it and sell them for that price. This year has been a rough year to sell anything but zero turns. Had a Craftsman 26HP 54 inch deck was...

RMC ignition switch or switches on the lap bars.

Check and see if anything is wedge in the pulleys or a bent pulley

Take the other 6 blades off and see how that works out.

Have used them a lot never had a problem with them.

The crank journal is most likely galded and will needed to be cleaned up

Sounds like it.

Sounds like The blade tip is set higher in front than rear

If the coil is hitting the magnet on the FW there should be scuff marks on the magnet, if there are no scuff marks on the magnet. It could it be loose magnets under the fly wheel scrubbing against the against the stator.

.008 to .010 I set it to .010

Dixie Chopper through the years. https://www.dixiechopper.com/our-legacy/ Still going strong in some areas. I own five three running and two fixer uppers. The fixer uppers will be sold which I have one almost ready to go. They sell good in my area.

If the belt is crossed the blades will be running backwards

From the picture it looks like the belt is crossed. Is it routed right?

Level the blades side to side. Turn the blades where the blades point front to rear. Front of the blade tips should be1/8 inch to 1/4 inch lower in the front.

What a dumb dealer the Magnum is a great mower. Looks like they have discontinued it and replaced it with the Falcon. When I worked for a Dixie Chopper dealer, we sold a lot of the Magnum mowers that were used for commercial use. It has the same deck spindles as the Classics. They made two...

Pumps probably getting weak. Might try Lucas Hydraulic Oil Booster and Stop Leak up to 50% in power steering pump. Probably not that strong in a hydro. Say around 30% or so. When I change oil in a hydro, I run it at around 20 to 30%. I ran across some at a good price a few years ago and bought a...

what is the sealant for?

need spec. off the engine

I have a Dixie Chopper XXW2500 72 inch cut that has the 33 HP on it. Came with a 25 HP Kohler. Had the Generac engine on it when I bought it.

33 HP engine Dixie Chopper used them until about 2012. It was a great engine until the EPA came out with some new omission standards that the engine did not meet. Instead of revamping the engine they just leaned the carb down that caused the engine to run hot. This made the exhaust valve...

Have seen the bottom sleeve bushing work its way out. Moves down and cuts the seal. I took a pvc pipe and it fits over the shaft and drove the bushing back in. It did not move back down that I know of. Seems like I had to turn the outside of the pvc down to fit inside the crank case. Look to...

VapoCept is a scam

Wonder how many people caught that I for one did not.

ROFLMAO

Could be a loose valve seat. Burned valve or worn cam shaft. Turn the engine over by hand with the valve cover off and see if both rocker arms are opening the same.

One way I have found to eliminate the second person. I have a large wheel weight and set it on the seat. Works great.

I have three Dixie Choppers that I mow with and have a suspension seat on one of them a suspension system mounts under the seat that works pretty well When I use the one that doesn't I can really tell it...

Will not ever buy an aftermarket ign module unless the oem is not available. Bought two back to back trying to save money one lasted three days. The other one about three minutes. Cheap Chinese junk.I think the guys that sell these do their own ratings on their junk.

Working on Z425 that the engine is turned sideways. Have to pull the left fender wrap muffler shield left rear wheel to get to the valve cover to adjust valves. Don't like to work on these type mowers. Had one in once that had a bottom seal leaking. I think no problem just pop the PTO clutch...

Check the releases on the hydros

Change your mowing pattern to see you if you can get the needed traction
