Evening, Does anyone have some real world experience on how long the Hydro-gears last? Both machines have the sealed Hydro-gear and very much in the residential camp. - I have a JD z235 that has 120hours on it, well taken care of. - I just picked up a JD z345m with 28 hours on it for a deal...

@Hammermechanicman, the center one or one to the bottom left?

Morning, I'm close to having this machine all back together but I cannot figure out what is missing with the throttle adjustment. I can choke it to start manually as well as use the throttle cable but when I adjust the throttle the engine does not go to idle or rev up accordingly. Any help is...

Evening... I tinkered with the governor and that wasn't it, currently the governor is turned down all the way it can go. When I did tinker with pumping the governor, the engine ran away and I had to shut off the engine quickly. @StarTech can you tell if the spring are in right location from my...

I have zero experience adjusting the governor however I have seen generally how it’s done. Several kohler specific videos on YouTube. @bertsmobile1, are you saying I need to adjust the governor?

Dragging this one out a bit more as I have the engine controls back and working kinda.... the engine fires up but adjusting the throttle through the cable doesn't do anything. See this video: https://photos.app.goo.gl/5MryhHyxswnhoguf8 What am I missing?

@StarTech Amazing thank you very much!

Thanks @Rivets, I was able to see the spring placement on pg 28, however, they weren't the SV730s model, the choke and the speed cable are one in the same.

I goofed while I was tinkering with the engine control and took off the springs without a picture, rookie move, I know. I can't seem to find a picture of video anywhere on the internet that would give me some direction. I see diagrams online but they aren't helpful. Does anyone have a picture...

Alright i'm back. 😂 I took the carb off one more time (getting fast at this point). I then took an air compressor at 110psi and blew out the holes on the top part of the carb. I then used some carb cleaner, then back to the air hose. Put it all back together and it's fixed. Video of engine...

Afternoon, John Deere z235e and the engine is a Briggs and Stratton 40N877. It runs fine at high RPM's but hunts at the lower. I've found this thread but doesn't seem to help (https://www.lawnmowerforum.com/threads/z335e-engine-surge.71692/). Here's a video of it running: I've had the carb...
