you weren't specific enough to be the hero lol

Yeah, seems to have most of the features of the TS242XD. Pros of YT42DXLS: Cheaper Has CTEK charge port and Battery indicator (I installed one on mine, it's so nice to have!) Auto-locking differential Cons of YT42DXLS would be: No warranty No repair/service history

That's a 48" mowing deck from a 2012 Husqvarna YTH 24K48 Riding Mower. Worth good money for sure.

Yeah, belt is nothing to worry about. It is very easy to align the steering wheel if you do get it. Nice they offered a discount for it though! The metal hood is a HUGE plus. Also, it isn't hard to just remove the chute if you get it.

yep

I would hope that people are changing their oil sooner than that.

AD, You mean a PTO seized/stuck in the on position.

100%

Sounds like a bad ignition coil. When they get old, they become "heat-sensitive", which is why it doesn't want to start. Or bad gas cap vent/some other fuel system blockage.

What did I tell ya!

What are we looking at?

Did you teach shop class or what?

Did you knock the freewheel lever in?

Do you have this stored somewhere, and then copy and paste it whenever there is an electrical issue? lol

definitely look at the K57 or K58

Hey, I would do that. The trip would be well worth it IMO. Husqvarnas tend to keep their value similar to JD. Did you buy your Riding mower with the Briggs vtwin new?

Incorrect setup, cable needs to be set, or need heavier throttle spring.

That probably bent the frame mounts if I had to guess.

While I love to snag a deal on used mowers, I think there is a pro with new equipment that you know all of the history, condition, maintenance, etc. If you bought a used mowers, it can sometimes be a tossup regarding the mechanical condition of the equipment and engine. With a new mower, if you...

Have you looked into Husqvarna Garden Tractors at all? I know they make, or made, a few models with fabricated 42/46/48" decks and came with Briggs V-Twins, which you would be familiar with, or Kawasaki V-Twins like in the JD. Husqvarna also has a lifetime warranty on their fabricated decks, so...

John Deeres also seem to retain their value really good, which is probably why that 10 year old X350 is still worth 2k.

Shoulda went for the X350...

What tractor, deck, etc. are we talking about? Why 1 mulching blade instead of 3?

For example, if I was selling a 2018 Husqvarna GT52XLSi, whose original price was $3500, Assuming everything is immaculate and fairly low hours, It could be sold for around $1500-1800. So typically around half of original price. You also have to factor in how the older models from around 2015 or...

Or owner didn't add enough/any oil to the fuel

Probably not, He just wanted to change the topic lol

yeah, there's an older model with a slightly thicker steering shaft and a newer one that's thinner. It can be hard to tell the difference so usually best to just buy the set.

Maybe, but they can't pull yard carts.

Hey all, I have a 2014 Craftsman Pro Series T7400 with one of those RS800 plastic transmissions and I'm looking to put something else on it. It has a heavy 54" reinforced deck and I mow a hilly property. I have a Tuff Torq K46 sitting around from a parts mower, but I'm worried that if I rebuilt...

That $900 difference is the difference between the Kohler running maybe 800 hours or more, and the Kawasaki which are known to easily get more than 1000 hours. As you say, Buy once, cry once, I just don't see that with the cub cadet.

Like StarTech said, just get a new steering shaft assembly.

I would still say Husqvarna.

Husqvarna is a great brand, best new mower brand if you ask me, but If you have 2 acres, don't bother even thinking about getting a base model Husqvarna like the YTH18542. It won't have enough power for your property and was made with the bare minimum features, like a weak transmission and a...

If it has a CVT, then that actually makes sense. I've had several riding mowers that had similar problems dues to a worn CVT belt, the thick belt on top of the transmission. With mine, I didn't want to have any more problems, so I ordered a GENUINE GT37401 CVT belt (dont waste your money on...

With half an acre, you'll probably hit the 4 year mark before 300 hours, so the JD warranty takes the win there. Kawasaki is often regarded as the "gold standard" for the best air-cooled engines. I really love them. Manual PTO could have it's fair advantages only that there are less parts that...

How is your drive belt?

I don't know much about small engine EFI systems, but maybe something to do with the injectors or an o2 sensor?

This is usually normal to some extent because when you lower it to idle, you are blocking the air from entering, which sets the mixture uneven temporarily, and that unburnt fuel is pushed into the hot muffler where it explodes. It wouldn't backfire if you always kept it at full throttle as you...

Yeah, that's where we have been buying parts. I did discover how good 8TEN blades were, now I put them on everything! Hipa makes some good parts too.

Me and my dad are running a repair business. I fix the riding mowers, he fixes mostly JD 300 series(316, 318), 400 series(425, 445,455), and JD gators. Where are you repair guys getting your parts? It sets him back a while waiting for JD OEM parts to ship, etc. (Not to mention how outrageous JD...

Are you able to turn the starter? May be a bad/stuck starter. I had a starter with a bad top bushing that got hot, blew up the magnet and that was the end of it of course. Sometimes those starters also get stuck in the engaged position. I say next step would be pull the engine shroud, and pull...

Well, when you think about it, it actually makes sense, similar to what ILENGINE said. When air is cold, it is more dense, thus the engine actually pulls more air in with the same stroke. The fuel mixture stays the same whether cold or hot. So it runs lean for a little bit, but it's normal and...

Startech, I can’t thank you enough. 🙏🙏🙏 Thank you so much! Will update later.

Sorry, it’s 926865

As you know, I’ve been trying to replace the blown Honda gxv670 in my hustler super z mini. I found a good Briggs and Stratton 24HP vtwin with less than 100 hours for $170 and I’m trying to adapt it to work. One of the problems is this is my first ztr that I’ve worked on and there are relays for...

It probably has a lot of old oil remaining in it, which would account for the extra ounces.

The spec is 48oz. Did you change the oil filter too? Just run it for a few minutes to let the oil fill up the filter and oil passages, etc. Are you on any kind of incline?

I would do whatever you can to fix it up. I've got an opposed twin from 1985 that's still running good, just needs new rings.
