I just did an engine swap on my husq. It did have an electric PTO. But now it has no deck or any kind of PTO. It's simply for pulling the trailer. But when I press the clutch/brake too far, the belt comes off at the engine pully. That might be where yours is off also. And it would hard to...

My cat seems to be fine with the Bravecto. I've heard of such skin problems with some topicals. But most topicals are made differently, as well as cats. What doesn't work for 1 might work well with others. I wish they made a 3 month pill or shot. Or better yet, some sort of pet food that...

Me too. I can't wait to get back to wearing my house shoes. I was having to share them with way too many others. House shoes are kind of personal, ya know. Like underwear.

Update on the flea progress. The soapy water trap I made (with the light over it) was catching maybe 1 flea every two days. The exterminator came yesterday and sprayed the inside and outside. After he was done he asked "Why did you call me. This stuff I spray, usually has them jumping all...

Nevermind. I found it. Video at the bottom. Here's some snips of a conversation I'm having with another fella somewhere else on the internet, I can't figure out what kind of 2 stroke he's got. And how this is mixing the fuel. All i've ever heard off is mixing fuel and oil together, then...

M# LGT2654 Product # 960450047 S# 061815A031116 Briggs 407777 0274 G5 A couple of issues here. This engine has the smaller crank because it had the manual PTO. The rider it's on now, once had an electric PTO. Using the crank & deck pulley, the deck belt pulley rubs the drag links when I turn...

Your dad nailed it.....

I like Taryls video's. He's got a common sense approach to a lot of things. To most things, actually. In this game, it requires a lot of that.

I don't know of any small engine shop that would charge you $300 to make 2 cables for any mower. You got taken.

I'm wondering why they can't put flea and tick meds in pet food. I told the landlord about the flea's, hoping for some old age remedy she knew about. She's an 80yr old country girl, and has a remedy for everything. Her remedy. And exterminator. Which she called and set an appointment for...

I guess I've been lucky. I've been bit by thousands of ticks and never had any adverse affects. When I was a kid, I stomped around the woods barefooted and in shorts most of time. Mom would have to check me over every night after getting out of the tub. When I got older, I'd check my...

FYI, a thin slice of lemon (and probably lime), on top of an ant bed, will get rid of them. They may simply move. But they won't move anywhere close to that mound.

Nor do I want to go to jail for arson. My landlord would definitely prosecute. There's all kinds of pests in jails (I hear)

I knew there was something about the way I spelled that, that didn't look right. Lime? Lyme.

You gotta be careful of those things. I hear they can give you lime disease. A couple of things I've learned about fleas. 1. They don't start laying eggs until they get their first bite of blood. 2. When they do start laying, they can lay 50 eggs per day. 3. Those eggs can hatch within a...

I was just thinking about how much over thought they put into a push mower back them. Todays plain-jane models vs this model.

So I got the robot vac and it scared the cat off for a couple of days. She she came back, she brought fleas in with her. So I get her a prescription of Bravecto and put it on her neck. That stuff seems to work real well. The only fleas I see on her now are dead ones that have fell off when...

Goodness. Apparently he knew they were NLA. (for that price)

Here's another instance of parts being unavailable. The vehicle is only about 6 years old.

I'm interested in seeing how good the new Stihl ZTR's are. If the quality in them are anything like their saws, it should be a good product. I know they have a lot of bells and whistles.

Why not just the fan cover?

One product that always stands out as long lasting, is Stihl. They've always made a great saw and trimmer. When you consider how much it costs to keep replacing those throw aways, one need only buy one Stihl and take care of it.

I think it was more the Russian/Saudi oil price war that was going on. Spot on with the presidential thing. No president tells the oil companies when to go into a boom or bust cycle.

I wonder if you can get a tan in the A/C?

50 years old? Good god man, what are they made of? The skin of Zeus?

Not really. The only thing that really affects the economy is the value of the currency. When they add trillions in new money, it devalues the existing currency. Then it costs more to buy everything. Then people slow down their buying. This affects growers and manufacturers, they have to cut...

It's just an eastern milk snake. Not harmful. But still would be enough to scare the daylights out of some.

Cars are definitely becoming like the mower industry. Not so cheap throw-aways.

I get a kick out of people comparing the economy and oil production during different presidential terms. As if any president has any say over the stock market, 95% of the economy or how much or how little oil is produced during their term. As far as your boots go, maybe there's a better...

We always hear about things like this. And speak about it. How they deliberately make cheap stuff, just to sell more. But this guy really puts things into perspective. If someone made a zrt that didn't start breaking down for 10 years, and the replacement parts would last 10 years, they'd...

LoL.. I ordered something from Walmart+ last week, that's coming from JAMAICA, NY. I've had things from Amazon, Ebay and others that originated from there. And rarely have they ever been on time. Anything from that place is always late. WM has a very strict policy on their sellers, so I'm...

This explains a lot of the business models for todays products. Things we were bringing up in the Taryls shop closing thread. It starts out about light bulbs, but it goes into other products. One thing particularly that really caught my attention, was the companies allowing the government to...

If they brought this idea back, I betcha it would be a good selling product. Air conditioned lawnmower, 1957. _ In October 1957, ads went out that demonstrated the “Power Mower of the Future” – the future of lawn mowing equipment. They built this machine with a bubbled model that sported its...

Where I live, I like FedEx much better. Because with UPS, everything gets shipped to Little Rock. Then the next day, it goes to Pine Bluff, to another warehouse (only about 30 to 40 miles south of Little Rock) Then it's loaded and shipped out for delivery. So that one jog, from LR to PB...

That's pretty cool.

I've been waiting over a couple of months now just for some Stens brand bar & chain oil. The fuel lines I ordered took a month. I think what's happening is that the quality of the products are getting worse, so they're having to build so many parts that the manufacturer just can't keep up...

What a shocker. He just added on a huge addition to his shop. Now he's closing it? Here he explains why.

I would've put in a penny and said "That's what you get when you ask for a tip, working at a job that pays way more than tip earners wages.

What a headache this has turned into. I decided to lengthen the tail pipes so they'd reach at least 1/2 in into the muffler that fit. I finally got that done, but now something else is off. I just has to walk away from it for a day or two.

My blessings ran out when I got to the muffler.

What's the free shipping limit now. It was $150. Has it gone up?

Depending on your area, opening a storefront requires a huge amount of extra work, time and all sorts of extra's. I tried the storefront thing, but I got so bogged down that it was unreal. Not being able find any reliable help was the worst part. Which meant I was constantly backed up. Some...

I've gotten quite a few from Stens. I probably spent too much. But when you need to reach that free shipping limits, plugs are a pretty good way to get to the limit. It's almost like getting the plugs for free.
