Not only electrical , it could be wise in some areas to be careful around machinery and equipment . My HVAC man sent this pic to me of a rattle snake in a unit . Why in there ? Most likely looking for mice .

Do different brands of mower blades have the same hardness ?

If you happen to have c clamps that will fit the situation , they are excellent for connecting most lawn tractor batteries . Heavy duty are best but your light weights will usually work . These pictured when re-positioned to vertical make excellent handles for lifting and carrying .

With no lubrication on those without lube design , how long can we expect a lawn tractor steering system with sector gear and pinion gear / bearing to last ? You guys with a shop may have more information on the subject than the average home owner , but home owners welcome to post any...

I don't find a date on OP or follow ups . Would it be asking too much to include that with the time ? If that's too much to ask , could the date replace the time .

As i understand plastics there are 2 basic types , thermo - plastic and thermo - set . How would a common person determine which a piece is ? Can thermoset be welded ?

I got me some of that Texas Mesquite wood for smoke flavor and smoked some burgers but i've not been able to find them .

Brand doesn't really matter , but if your lawn tractor has a idler sheave with a bad bearing in many instances the bearing only can be replaced . The ones i've done had a 202 ball bearing or very similar .

Many mowers have a 3 blade deck . Maybe i'm missing how a clamp blade blocker works on the center blade of a 3 blade deck .

Several years back i found a site that dated the year of any Craftsman power tool and the name of the manufacturer but i'm un-able to locate that information now . Thought you knowledgeable guys would possibly be able to help . My eye sight isn't nearly as good as you younger whipper snappers ...

If old gas isn't desirable for a $50.00 mower why would I want to dispose of it by pouring it in a $50,000 dollar pickup truck.

Where does a person find EDIT?

Due to mowing conditions, I do a lot of reverse travel and the mow in reverse safety becomes a nuisance. When safety is NOT a concern at SandburRanch I've found a simple temporary over ride on the X350 for the mow in reverse button. Not disconnecting any wires it can be accomplished from the...

Has anyone developed a convenient way to lube the sleeve bearing that supports the steering shaft near the pinion gear on a X350?

I thought possibly the more expensive X350 may be a little better than the box store tractors, but I guess not in the seat department. As a test, the tractor has always been mounted and dis-mounted from the right side in its 52 hour life span. Left edge never touched with my butt cheeek A**...

I'll be absent until e-mail notifications is corrected. You folks have a nice time looking for your subject matter. I don't have enough time remaining in life to put up with the hassle.

It's certain many have different types of equipment ( 4 cycle - 2 cycle ) so gas of the correct nature is important to specific equipment. How do you label your gas cans as 2 or 4 cycle, maybe Stabil if it was added and when was fresh gas put in the container? Do you have a convenient way of...

Don't know bout you but mine doesn't even come close. https://youtu.be/x4Zrh70sQhw

mine doesn't work. how can i fix it?

Possibly some of you remember these screw on fittings that were on the hand pump you inflated your bike tires with as a kid. I've found it impossible to find these locally at auto stores and even checked at a bicycle repair shop. I get the look like what the hell is that. If anyone has a...

Can the screen in the gas tank neck be removed? If so, how is it done?

The X350 John Deere lists a k46 transmission but the D140 spec sheet sold at Lowe's doesn't indicate which transmission it has. Does someone know which transmission the D 140 has or have a link to that information? Thanks

Just thinking, if manufacturers would read some of the forums available to determine what bugs owners / operators the most, how well they could improve their product for so little cost. Riding mowers directed. Example : 1) it just clicks 2) i'm setting on the seat and nothing when i turn the...

I'm having a problem locating a air filter for a Homelite Chainsaw. Anyone have one they would part with or know of another avenue to purchase one ? I've contacted Homelite via phone and struck out. Homelite UT - 10617-A Sr. No. 7F2840120

If brake pads for your old mower become scarce or the economy has you down, they can be made of wood. Oak or Hickory works well.

For those that have a horizontal mounted filter that seems to have no good way to change without getting oil everywhere but where it needs to be, in the drain pan, try this method. Loosen the filter until it can just be turned by hand with some effort. Drill a hole in the side of the filter...

Something is screwed up. Clicking on edit gets me a new blank sheet rather than my original post I'm attempting to edit.

What do you L B enthusiasts call this one. I'm sure it has a name besides just Lawn Boy.:laughing: The front wheel in the picture is incorrect.

How much is the per hour charge at your Honda dealer for servicing, carburetor cleaning etc?

I need a fuel kit for my GT-2000 and everywhere I look that Echo Mod. number is not listed. What's one supposed to do, buy one close to that number and hope it fits.

for a Briggs Engine. Model 407777 Type 0188 B1 Code 080125 ys I find it impossible. Please direct me to a reliable source other than the John Deere dealer.

Briggs engine John Deere LA-135 Mod 407777 type 0188 B1 code 080125 ys Does the solenoid on this engine screw out ? If so, is there a special tool recommended for removal ?

Looking for advise from anyone presently using an Ultrasonic Cleaner to clean carburetor parts etc., their recommendations and cleaning solutions that work. The last I used one was 40 some years ago while working in a small jewelry manufacture shop during college. All I can recall about it was...

It seems as if mower manufacturers can not make mowers that will mow high enough. If it will mow 4" someone wants 5". If it will mow 5" someone wants 6" and so on up the ruler. The mechanical adjustments have their limitations so the solution I see is an option of taller wheels at the time...

So there sets my Chevy with plenty of power so why not put it to work. Blades sharpened - deck cleaned. OSHA doesn't need to know everything.

The last time wholesale propane was $0.34 was in 2002 .

GOD to ST. FRANCIS "Frank, you know all about gardens and nature. What in the world is going on down there on the planet? What happened to the dandelions, violets, milkweeds and stuff I started eons ago? I had a perfect no-maintenance garden plan. Those plants grow in any type of soil, withstand...

I always get amused at this one. Why is it always recommended to clean and make sure the negative battery cable is tight when the positive is usually the one that corrodes?

Anyone have information as to the tensile strength of V belts in pounds? An automotive belt with the letter A width designation for instance. I know they are strong for what they are but how strong?

doesn't have a thermostat. So what? Maybe it'll run cooler, and cooler it does if used in the winter. In fact it can run so cool the moisture is never driven off. That's what that thick milk looking goop is on the dip stick and in the DS tube. Good for manufacturers and bad, very bad for...

With all the posts about " my mower won't crank " " it just turns a little and stops " if you want some entertainment google ( starter amp meter ). You can read everything from " that's impossible " to " you probably can't afford one that will do that ".:laughing: As far back as long time ago...

Has anyone ever found side discharge ( only ) blades for these 100 series tractors? They come standard with a combination discharge / mulch blade and don't do either very well. I had a part number note on my phone a few days ago someone posted but upgraded phones and lost the number. IIR the...

JD LA 135 LE with Briggs 22 HP engine. Bought new in May 2008 with 210 hours at the present time. A few vinyl seat cracks on left front corner. Ready to cut your grass/weeds as soon as I get the blades sharpened. Price $1,200. A new comparable tractor would be the JD D 130 @ $1899.00 list...

How can a lawn tractor have a bumper to bumper warranty if it doesn't have a front bumper?:laughing:

Cold weather and cold engines are often problematic starting whether it be Briggs or other. My 48 Ford coupe was in that category but that's a whole different story and very long. Being the choke doesn't seem to accomplish much in this regard on my Briggs I took it upon myself to determine a...
