Good point about PTO vs. older manual type blade engagement. I believe PTO clutch has a little slippage while engaging. 👍

A side comment on engaging the blades at low engine speed: I had a 42" 16 (or 18?) hp 2009 Western Auto Wizard mower (I forget which of the 2 mower manufacturers of those days it was made by) - bought it used and used it for many, many years on a couple of rough acres. Anyway - I was having to...

FYI - You should avoid firing an ignition (whether lawnmower or automotive) without a path to ground either through the specified spark plug gap or direct short to ground. Here's why: The ignition coil can generate much higher voltage than it takes to fire the properly gapped spark plug. When...

(late to this thread) "Not sure what the new Electric Battery Powered units are doing." I bought a Ryobi electric 2nd gen. zero turn (model Z30Li) this spring (the 2nd gen Ryobi ZTR's have Lithium ion batteries instead of lead acid). It has no reverse safety feature - seamlessly allows...

"Sundays are my day to get my own things done. I only stopping now as I awaiting a couple of my gals to lay." Please post pics of gals!

Good post! HOWEVER ( 😬 ), you said: "Very few automobiles on the road have roller lifters. Have stiffer valve springs. Run faster than 3600 RPM." I believe you probably didn't say what you meant to say there - that you would agree that most passenger vehicles built in the last 2 or 3 decades...

I'm late to the thread. "Sundays are my day to get my own things done. I only stopping now as I awaiting a couple of my gals to lay." 🙀 Sounds like you're a busy man!

Do they also have an uncircumcised version? 😁 👍

Thanks for the info on sites that aren't secure and credit cards. Of course my purpose in posting was to let people know that the problem was the mistake in the URL that was displayed and not that the intended site was dead. I'm probably the only one that re-listened to that part of the video...

Part 2 is PT mowerMech's 2nd post. 👍

One precaution: The coupon site given in the video, HFQDPDB.com, is not a secure site. (He says it right, but the text he displays in the video is incorrect.) The correct url is HFQPDB.com Fortunately my browser warned me and blocked it, and I never override those blocks. Then I went back...

My son in law is in a nightmare every mowing season keeping his lawn (approx. 3/4 acre urban lot) cut. The grass is way too thick - the neighbors tell him that the man who owned the house two owners before him was obsessive about overseeding - he was out there over-seeding all the time, and...

I purchased parts from Outdoor Distributors to repair my mower 10 days ago. I called them twice at the end of this last week to find out whether the order actually shipped or not - could not get a straight answer out of them, much less get a tracking number during either call, even though they...

I've got to go into my Dana (http://www.lawnmowerforum.com/small-engine-mower-repair/7524-need-advice-going-into-dana-transaxle.html) - never been into one before. I got good help on my other thread about that. I like to know anything I can before I turn the first wrench so I don't run into...

I messed up. This is on my Wizard/AYP (same as Crarftsman) 16 horse 42" deck AYP7167A39 mower - vintage 1993/94. I just bought new rear tires, and figured it would be easier to take the rear wheels off the axles and take them to Walmart or someplace to have the old tires removed and new ones...

I'm rebuilding (replacing *all* parts associated with) the front axle of this 1993 Wizard (Western Auto brand) AYP with all new parts - was able to find *everything* else on the internet, including the spindle for the *right* side and the axle itself even though they have also been discontinued...
