    Champion gas powered generator fuel cap doesn't fit right

    Recently I acquired a Champion generator from a relative, model number 200911. I was there in September 2020 when this generator was purchased and helped transport it. Fast forward 3.5 years, relative is passed away, I purchased generator from the family. If I recall correctly back to 2020 I...

    It appears that it was totally worthless to ask for your opinion here, given for your disdain for those seeking to obtain reasonable and valid information supported by relative comps. Please disregard this thread and close for further comments - I herby declare that I no longer seek the...

    Toro Super Bagger 20192 Transmission Powering Left Wheel Only

    I've done that once before with a similar plastic transmission on the Toro Recycler model 20333. These transmissions are a PITA to work on - case halves sealed with silicone/RTV and they also use a viscous gear oil. They do not have a "cover" that can be removed for inspection unlike the older...

    Toro Super Bagger 20192 Transmission Powering Left Wheel Only

    Yes, the wheels spin independently and also spin equally with their axle shaft half. Between the last time I mowed the grass up until on Thursday when I mowed last, I did nothing unusual, with the exception of add tension to the Personal Pace cable right before starting the mower up on...

    Toro Super Bagger 20192 Transmission Powering Left Wheel Only

    I understand when these fail the axle gears do not mesh with the wheel gears. Not the issue here, yet.

    Toro Super Bagger 20192 Transmission Powering Left Wheel Only

    I took off the wheels just to double check. These wheels use metal gears. I am all too familiar with the Toro Recycler models post-2009 that used PLASTIC gears in the wheels which were just awful! This Super Bagger doesn't have any kind of a spring loaded ratcheting for the gears on the end...

    Toro Super Bagger 20192 Transmission Powering Left Wheel Only

    Suddenly the transmission on my Toro Super Bagger model 20192 began powering only the left wheel, which of course will create a myriad of issues when trying to cut straight and also traction loss as well. This particular mower does not have the ratcheting gears like some of the older Toro...

    This is an extremely LOW hour, one owner Troy-Bilt Storm 2410 24" 2 stage snow thrower/snow blower with electric start in immaculate condition. Not used this season at all and only used once last season! Owned by my Father, I'm selling for him and you'll be dealing with me. He's moving and won't...

    Toro HYPR-OIL mixed with 15w50 YAY or NAY?

    This is an old thread, back in April 2021 my Dad ran over a sign post that the crazy methed up tenant in the adjacent property installed as a property marker, slicing open the left side hydro filter. So I ended up draining both hydros, installing new filters, and using the specified Hypr-Oil as...

    Toro Titan 52" Commercial Zero Turn 2 Starter Solenoid Failures?!?!?!?

    Reporting back to say that the issue with the starter has not returned since the ground connection on the block was tightened. There was likely never an issue with the solenoid that was replaced last year either I'd assume.

    Toro Titan 52" Commercial Zero Turn 2 Starter Solenoid Failures?!?!?!?

    Upon nearly replacing the starter as we have the brand new replacement in hand, we noticed that the main ground between the battery and the engine block was loose. We tightened that up and did not replace the starter. From what I can see there is no body/frame ground. It appears that the...

    Toro Titan 52" Commercial Zero Turn 2 Starter Solenoid Failures?!?!?!?

    Thank you. I have a new, open box Toro #136-7880 starter on order for $175. I really hope this is the end of the line for starter/solenoid failures! When I get around to it I'll dissect the original starter. Can't imagine why at only 59 hours it would be crapping out other than it's purely...

    Wow, I didn't realize the blade would be so openly exposed for complimentary Toro toe amputations without the chute like that.

    Toro Titan 52" Commercial Zero Turn 2 Starter Solenoid Failures?!?!?!?

    I stopped by to check it out. It appears that the starter is the actual failure. I even made a short video you can see here. I gave the starter a couple of very light taps and it fired right up. Seems that the solenoid is not at fault, and maybe it wasn't last year either - although tapping...

    Toro Titan 52" Commercial Zero Turn 2 Starter Solenoid Failures?!?!?!?

    The way it's fastened is as it was from the factory, minus the removal of the original solenoid and installation of the new. When I'm back at his place I'll take a look at if I can find any grounds. But if the solenoid is giving a good "clunk" I don't suspect a ground to be at fault...

    Toro Titan 52" Commercial Zero Turn 2 Starter Solenoid Failures?!?!?!?

    Here's a thought; I believe this solenoid may be grounded via the mounting bolts. The smaller wire on the lower studs is from the ignition switch only. I believe there were only 3 wires from memory, the 2 large gauge between starter and battery and then the low amperage connection between...

    Toro Titan 52" Commercial Zero Turn 2 Starter Solenoid Failures?!?!?!?

    Plenty of "whoopsies" on this Zero Turn as the transmission levers must be disengaged, parking brake on, and butt on seat in order to start. Or if you engage the parking brake with transmission levers engaged it will also kill the motor. But then again no clunk heard from solenoid under these...

    Chute blocker for Toro 42” fabricated deck model 75747

    https://www.amazon.com/Qwikchute-Blocker-Deflector-Quickchute-NQD-TG3-5260/dp/B074P8XBDD I found that a few years ago but the price is high. Never bought, but apparently gives you remote control on the fly from your seat.

    Toro Titan 52" Commercial Zero Turn 2 Starter Solenoid Failures?!?!?!?

    I understand, when a safety switch is engaged it does not send power to the solenoid, no click or clunk at all.

    Toro Titan 52" Commercial Zero Turn 2 Starter Solenoid Failures?!?!?!?

    Next time I'm there I will take a look at the ground wire although I don't recall anything being loose last year. Also the mower has been used quite a few times this year and perhaps there have actually been two solenoid failures this year if I recall him mentioning, I believe earlier in the...

    Chute blocker for Toro 42” fabricated deck model 75747

    You can build yourself one with steel plate bolted to the deck. But then I believe you need to change the internal baffles of the deck so that it tries to recycle the grass rather than send it out to the side discharge. I considered building a side discharge block off plate for my Father's...

    Toro Titan 52" Commercial Zero Turn 2 Starter Solenoid Failures?!?!?!?

    My Father has had a brand new Toro Titan HD 1500 (model number 74451) 52" commercial zero turn in his possession since 2018. He only uses it in a residential capacity mowing probably less than 1 acres of grass. Last October in 2021 I replaced the starter solenoid with another brand new Toro...

    Toro Model 20333 Motor Swap With Donor Motor From Toro Model 20043 - Parts Compatibility Issues?

    I believe I have located the correct engine brake cable that has the proper connections on both ends. Toro part number 115-8437. Fits Toro model 20332 which is the same mower minus blade brake/walk away system. Ordered for $16.30. I have also searched for a variety of Toro Belts and have...

    Toro Model 20333 Motor Swap With Donor Motor From Toro Model 20043 - Parts Compatibility Issues?

    Would it make my life any easier to take the Honda motor off of the Toro Super Bagger model 20192, install that on the Toro Recycler model 20333, and take the 6.0 horsepower B&S motor and transplant that onto the Toro Super bagger deck instead?

    Toro Model 20333 Motor Swap With Donor Motor From Toro Model 20043 - Parts Compatibility Issues?

    Hello and I hope you'll enjoy this small project. I recently acquired a free Toro Recycler model 20333 circa 2012-2013 with a bad 6.75 horsepower Briggs & Stratton motor and swapped on a 6.0 horsepower Briggs & Stratton motor from a Toro Super Recycler model 20043 circa 2000. I have run into 2...

    Older Craftsman Edger Shaft Broke

    Back in business. Found a local machine shop (actually going out of business within the next month) willing take on a small job like this for only $30. I got another quote from a larger production shop for $60. And many, many shops don't deal with small jobs anymore, they all say that they...

    Older Craftsman Edger Shaft Broke

    Would there be any negative to NOT loc-titing the stud and leaving the bolt as-is with the hex head attached? Rather than a threaded stud and a nut?

    Older Craftsman Edger Shaft Broke

    Interesting solution. I had not thought of that. Grind it flat, drill it out, tap it. But no, I do not know anyone with a lathe at home or at work unfortunately. I suppose I could drill it myself but there's no way it would be perfectly centered in the bore of the shaft.
