    28 HP Briggs on Husqvarna MZT 52 with oil leak?

    Mover had been ran once this year and all was good. Changed the oil in it and now it has developed an oil leak and not from the filter. Been reading of issues with lower housing leaking. Pretty disappointing to have this problem with 125 hours. Anyone seen any common area of leaks?

    Warranty for primer bulbs?

    Curious question, I asked 2 different dealers about this and got different answers. On a FS70 trimmer bought in April 2012 with the oil to double the warranty. Would the primer bulb be a warranty item? I know it is not a big repair but thought if it was covered I would let them do it. I got...

    MZT 52 Gator blades?

    Anyone tried the Gator blades on the MZT 52? Thought it might reduce clipping size and wondered if it would improve lift. I notice sometimes mine leaves a little that the front tires run over.

    28 HP Commercial Turf engine smoked

    Went to unload mower after mowing yard in town and it smoked real bad, like oil smoke.. Only has 3 hours on it, used it about 1 1/2 today and never saw smoke, hauled it back home and started it to unload, it set an hour or two before unloading and it billowed gray smoke. Oil level is still ok...

    MZT 52 first mow.

    Did my first mow with the new MZT 52. Ground is real wet here and had me concerned. Spun out in a couple spots and slid on one bank but overall it did good. Cut my mowing time by about a third, experience will probably improve that some and by no means did I push it speed wise. Ride is better...

    Question about the 48 month % deals.

    Question about the 48 month 0% deals. I know a couple of the dealers I have looked at use Sheffield, not sure what some of the others use. I think I am going to get a Husqvarna MZT 52 thru a local dealer. Does Sheffield have the ability to make payments online? Any of the others?

    New mower parts availability?

    In making a decision on a new mower I am concerned about parts availability. I have not made a decision on a mower yet but I am considering a Husqvarna MZT 52, Gravely XL, Exmark Quest, Toro MX5060, Ferris IS700 and if I decide not to go zero turn maybe a John Deere rider or Husqvarna. Would...

    Engine choices?

    Same zero turn mower with a 48" deck comes with either a 27 HP Briggs & Stratton Professional Series or a 18.5 gross hp Kawasaki FS600V. Seems like lots of hp difference. Are they rated in such a different way?

    Husqvarna MZT 52 or Ferris IS700Z

    Seeing some decent pricing this fall on these. I have driven the MZ and a older Ferris, never got to cut with either. Any thoughts?

    Columbia zero turns?

    Local dealer has these for $2700, only site I could find is a Canadian site but looks like the same mower. I think MTD makes these, has the 2800 transaxles. I only mow about 1.5 hours with a regular rider now. Is it worth the risk? Hate to spend $4000 or more. www.columbia-canada.com

    Lawn tractor choices?

    Would love a zero turn to save some time or at least I think I would as I have never used one. But money is a big part of the decision. Between these mowers what are the good and bad points? John Deere D140, Husqvarna YTH24K48 or Cub Cadet LTX1045.

    Choosing a zero turn?

    All the choices out there are confusing. I mow about 1.5 - 2 hours per week on my yard with a 46 inch rider, and probably haul it to town to mow my mother's yard. I have a little bit to mow that slopes. I want something that will last, want a decent tranny. Here are a few I am considering...

    Cub Cadet RZT L54 KW ?

    Local dealer has these on sale for $3,000. Their picture looks a little different that the unit seen on Cub Cadet's site. Front axle is black instead of yellow. Deck and parking brake levers are in a different place. Looking for a cheap solution for a couple hours mowing per week.

    Craftsman YT 3000?

    For a cheaper rider are these any good? Craftsman Riding Mower: Turn Tight Technology at Sears One on Craigslist for $800 that the guy says he bought 10/23/12. Single cylinder worried me, but my 15 year old MTD has about had it.

    New tractor styler rider or a zero turn?

    Currently have a 46" MTD mower that is 15 years old. Takes about 1.5 hours to mow what I mow. Mower is rough so I am considering replacing it. Lookes at a Gravely ZT XL 48 for $4100, also looked at some Husqvarna, Cub Cadet and Exmark. Gravely seemed to handle the best. I have a few small...
