Rather than change my oil at specific intervals, I use an electronic oil tester. (You would be surprised how long oil can last based on actual measurements). This is similar to what I use : https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07WV4SKJ2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glc_fabc_Z8FQE1BDY3E219BQ7G0C

You can buy the 2 quarts of Kohler and filter for $30 on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B083G58MP5/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glc_fabc_3ZAE8Z1SRZZ2DXB00JZ2

I knew a seat could be damaged, but had never actually seen one that popped out. Thanks for posting this. Found a video on YouTube about peening a used one back in place. (You may cringe a bit watching it, you'll see why) but the guy seems to know what he's talking about.

Terminal A is ground, terminal D is power, terminal E is connected to the same power but has an incandescent bulb in series, between power and terminal F. Bulb lights with low voltage. The other terminals are not used. Test between A and D, A and F and D and F for continuity. (Have no idea...

I've found that theres often a liner inside the cap that can be pried out and the vent hole cleaned out.

First check to see if your getting spark. If yes, the mower may have hit an obstacle and sheared the flywheel key and caused the engine to jump time. (Still creates spark but at the wrong time, preventing the engine to start). If no spark, the coil probably died. Simple process to replace...

I believe that you have a wire that's shorted. Carefully trace eack of the wires coming off the ignition switch and look for fraying are pinching. I'd also suspect a shorted ignition switch. (They've been known to short internally).

May have hit an obstacle and sheared the timing pin (jumped time). Have a look at the top of the flywheel and see if the shear pin is lined up with the slot.

The easiest fix would be just install a replacment Kohler 20 hp. (Its a good engine and will last just as long as z briggs given proper care and maintenance). Heres a good Kohler for 7 bill's. (Think about it)...

First check your manual in the specifications section. Always follow whatever is specified in the manual and NEVER what someone tells you. The pressure stated in the manual was developed by the Toro engineers. Just like an automobile, the pressure marked on the tires, is the MAXIMUM...

Try running some Sea Foam through the carburetor. Mix a double dose in the gas tank, run for several minutes to draw the mix into the carb, then shut off and let it sit. (Had a snowblower that had to sit for several days to dissolve the clogged jet).

Actually they appear to have normal wear for an age of seven years. (Remember that some yards, especially those in the south, have very tough grasses. Not to mention sand and dirt). My blades (northern Indiana) wear like this after several years. I sometimes use a file, it takes forever if...

I use a Dewalt 20 volt battery powered DCF880 Impact wrench. Never have a problem getting the blades off (or on, never use a torque wrench). Usually the blade nut just pops after a few impacts. Had a blade on an old tractor years ago. Used a corded Impact wrench on it, took about 5 minutes of...

Every figure this out? If not, because one of the transmission bolts had fell out, I check the see if the transmission may have changed position (slid forward?) and shortened the distance. This would loosen the belt (sightly) and may be more than the idler tensioner can compensate for.

Seems whenever i go out to the shed to start the Simplicity Broadmoor, I either have a flat tire or one thats low. So I end up dragging an air hose of the garage, out to the shed. Not a huge deal, but a pitta anyway. So I decided to buy a Dewalt 20 volt, cordless inflator. Model DCC020IB. Let...

This probably not the cable assy your looking for, it fits a Craftsman 917370940. P/N 439468. Take a look and see how it compares to yours. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Husqvarna-439468-Lawn-Mower-Zone-Control-Cable-Genuine-OEM-part/193406282793?epid=11019783908&hash=item2d07e9ac29:g:X04AAOSw-HhehR1a

I seriously doubt that a Craftsman lawn mower built in 1998 would still have any parts availability. I would suggest you try Ebay, look under MTD for a similar type of throttle assembly and cable. All you really need is a housing that bolt to the upright and a configuration that fits the...

Is Sears still in business?????

This is as close as I can find to your exact model number. Should be close enough, hope it helps.

The details of the warranty are spelled out in your owner's manual.

I'm trading in my Regency for a new Broadmoor 23 hp with 50" stamped deck. Would like to install an operator controlled discharge chute on the new machine. On the Regency I simply drilled a hole in the rubber chute and attached a small rope. Works, but trailer park. Like to make it look oem if...
