Your signature below is elementary school knowledge, so you have no room to talk. :sleep::sleep::sleep: Have you ever pulled the metal engine shroud and cleaned the top of the block and cooling fins?

Read my other post Slomo, the mower is fixed. (y) Satman, I replaced the Hydro filter, refilled it with the Mobile 1 15w50 full synthetic motor oil I had left from my 5 quart container, and purge the system by way of the bypass valves. I cut my 2 acres of land here at home, and everything...

Not surprised for what? That cleaning the top of the block and cooling fins periodically worked for me to make make Gravely mower last this long.

The only thing you are watching is your hand typing keys on your keyboard.

So I misread you about the ignore statement you made. I stand up to my mistakes as this thread title is proof of that. I am sorry for one thing. It is that I am not prefect as you are and never make mistakes. WOW!!! you been here a year longer than I have. Want a dinky button. If Bert or you...

Rivets, I am glad you put me on your ignore list, as from this reply you have an equally unkind attitude toward people and deserve no respect. It is people like you that give forums made to help people bad names. Any mouthing I did was truly deserved for disrespecting me first. I am the one...

I replaced the Hydro filter, refilled it with the Mobile 1 15w50 full synthetic motor oil I had left from my 5 quart container, and purge the system by way of the bypass valves. I cut my 2 acres of land here at home, and everything turned out great. Thanks for all the helpful replies to my...

The problem with your replies is your know-it-all self righteous attitude and the way you explain yourself. You have some serious issues, dude! I am glad I am now on your ignore list. lol

Star Tech, I was hoping I would pull you out and have you chime in, by suckering in some of these knucklehead know-it-all trolls that like degrading a person when they think that know more than people. I have been a member of this forum for almost 10 years, so I know much more than they think I...

First of the Pope is not holy at all. He as all Pope's that claim to be a Vica of Christ only serves him to be as the Bible says an anti-christ. Don't get into a Bible debate with me that you can never win. By the way, check this chart out below as Sae30HD is even thicker than all these on the...

bertsmobile1, You know nothing about oil. For you to say that 20W/50W is thicker than the thickest motor oil made in SAE30HD only serves to show you do not know what you talking about. Your last line shows everyone how much of a sick pervert you must be.

I would have thought that I could get some experience Moderators or Lawnmower mechanics to reply back to my post in this forum, and give suggestions to me. I guess I was wrong.

Hi everyone, Feel free to call me stupid because I know better. But when I took out my Gravely Promaster 44Z for the season I did a Engine oil and filter change. I mistakenly started put the SAEHD30 motor oil in to the Hydraulic intake and not the oil intake before I realized what a stupid...

hlw49, Thank you for your informational reply. I just found it odd that even though I had the wheels off the unit, in spite of what the video indicated with the bypass valves opened, and it said that they would not turn, the wheel motors the wheels attached to were still spinning with those...

mechanic mark, Thank you for your reply. My model number is 991023 and my serial number is 000145 However, I have now replaced the hydraulic hose and purged the system. Since I had a Hydro-Gear hydraulic system on my Gravley model I followed the video linked below. The only thing that happen...

Hi guys, I will be replacing a leaking hydraulic hose line that had a pinhole leak from my existing hydraulic hose, and nowhere in the Gravley manual does it give me the purging procedure for bleeding the air out of my two hydraulic pumps. If any has a Promaster 44Z or 34Z and has information...

These instructions in the manual are completely inaccurate, and full of mistakes. 1,) The engine has just been running for 10 minutes, and it tells you to stop the engine and unscrew the dipstick and check the dipstick for the Hydraulic oil level. (Doing this just after the engine hot will...

StarTech, Thank you so must for your comment. Think the UV dye would have been a good suggestion, but after putting it more 15W50 oil, I could very clearly see exactly which hose had the leak, because it was such a big leak. I took the hose off yesterday and brought it to a machine shop, where...

Hi everyone, I just changed out a Hydraulic hose line that leaked out to the point of losing power, and now I am about to add some Mobile One 15W50 Synthetic motor oil as recommended in my manual. Since I am not doing a complete oil filter change, because it was changed last year, that knowing...

56 views with no a single person with any knowledge to help me. It looks like this forum is hopeless.

I noticed this small Yellow rubber piece (That may be some type of seal) that was detached from what appears to be a Hydraulic line. Do you think that this is why and where the Hydraulic Fluid may be the place it went gushing out? Look at the photo below:

My house is over 200 feet from the Road, and a short time ago I was cutting the grass close to the road, and I started losing power quickly, so I turned the engine off, and got off my Zero Turn Gravely, when I lifted up the seat, there was Oil all over the place. Since the Mower was not moving I...

My 6 year old battery was on it's last leg, and I decided to jump it with my car battery. It started up right away, and I cut my 3 acres of lawn. After I finished I tried putting the battery on a Battery Charger and Maintainer, but to spite charging it my battery would not hold a charge. So...

Sure Thanks! Model # 991023

It does not address the issue of my question anywhere. That is why I asked that question here. Check Hydraulic Fluid Level 1. Start the unit and run it to operating temperature (about 10 minutes). 2. Cycle the control levers forward and backward two or three times. 3. For units equipped with...

I know this may seem like a elementary school question, but I have never seen a dipstick have a screw in cap of 10 threads in length, so with that I ask you should I take the reading without screwing the cap in at all? When taking a reading for my 2 thread screw in cap for my motor oil, I have...

You are right it was a stupid thought. You should know I am smarter than a fifth grader. ?

You would not get 1/2 to 3/4 turn on this 3 3/4 inch Hydro filter I have old or not. I can barely get my hands around it to hank tighten it, as it is so big.

I am buying the locking filter wrench type in the photo because the strap type I bought from Harbor freight the first time will not work to install the filter, only to remove it. (It evens say on the packaging made to remove only). The only reason I am planning on using this locking filter...

In my Gravely instruction manual when installing a new Hydraulic Filter it tells me this in step number 6. 6.) Spin new oil filter onto filter housing until it makes contact. Tighten oil filter another 1/2 turn. I always was told that oil filters should only be hand tighten, can turn the...

Do you know where I can find out how much the capacity is for a Promaster 44Z, because I can not find it in my owners manual? It.is $7.88 for just 1 quart at Walmart.as shown in the link below: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Mobil-1-15W-50-Full-Synthetic-Motor-Oil-1-qt/20713645

I am including a photo of what I believe might be a Hydraulic reservoir of my Gravely Promaster 44Z lawnmower. I pulled out the dipstick and nothing showed up on the dipstick at all. If this is the Hydro fluid reservoir, then how much should it take to fill iit up? I believe the that if this...

I just bought some new mulching blades for my Gravely Promaster 44Z and have not replaced them in a few years. With that I have a couple of questions to ask the good people of this forum. 1.) If I remember correctly the bolts holding the 3 blades are reverse thread bolts. Is this correct? 2.)...

I what to remove my carburetor to bring to a local lawnmower dealer to have my carburetor professional soaked and cleaned. I am concerned about me being able to remove this carburetor because of the uninstall instructions I read on page 3-25 of the service manual linked to the attachment below...

Hi guys! Let me give what info I can and see if it can help you in knowing what my problem might be. A couple of weeks ago I went to cut my grass and it ran about 5 minutes and then the motor killed. Now the it won't stay running, unless the choke is on, and even then it try's to kill until I...

Scott, I love you post, but I have to confess that I had to take a few breaths to finish it. :laughing:

Hi guys! New to the forum, and looks like a great place to hang out at. Do any of you guys have this same problem??? Here is my story: After losing everything I own with 15ft of water for almost month in Arabi, La. after hurricane Katrina, I relocated to higher ground on the Northshore of New...

I own a 2006 Gravely Promaster 44Z model # 991023, and was thinking about replacing my mulching blades myself this time around. I can not find any blade replacement instructions on the Ariens/Gravely website. I found a place to download the Owners manual and Parts manual, (which do not have...
