When I sell stuff on ebay and get this error, I hit Shift Control F , select part of photo, open mspaint, paste, save as a jpg file, then use the file. Don't need to download something else.

Did the generation not learn the "Hold on, let me put down the phone. Ill be back in a second..."???

I have wagons with 10" innertube wheels. They keep loosing air after only 6 months. I tried different stores- harbor, northern toll, tractor supply, and flat tire sealer with little luck. I have checked and found nothing to puncture the innertube with no luck. As many wheels as I have solid...

It had arms that swung out. For the huge campus lawn I guess... I wish I bid\won on the Cushman utility cart($20)... It would have been cool to drive around with the nephews in the neighborhood I live at- like all the other kids on golf carts.

"One reason the company gave was that drivers kept crashing the cars. Hertz CEO Stephen Scherr noted that the costs of repairs of an electric vehicle are also much higher." https://www.cnn.com/2024/01/18/business/why-do-people-keep-crashing-teslas/index.html

That reminds me of the 300gallon sprayer(with briggs) trailer that I won at the company auction when they were closing the campus.... I paid $10 for it... If I kept it, I could spray my 1.75 acre yard in 2.5 passes. HAH!!!

Actually they were doing ok. The parent company whose main business....wasn't and they tried selling the small engine division with no luck. That's why they shut it down to concentrate on their main business.(so I read) Sure, they were only a small fish but they had their nitch. Shortly...

Did Tecumseh see Chondas and battery mowers in thier crystal ball when they quit the business??? They left at the right time....

Not really... If they want to stop the sale, there are many ways to prevent it. From "flip-in" to "flip-over" to c-share stock owners can have a large enough share, etc to name a few.

No offense, but come on people, this won't be the only company foreign owned. If u really want to be depressed, know that International Harvester truck is owned by the car company HItler created, the Jeep that was built for WW2 was owned by an Italian co, now french, the "American" Toledo scale...

When I moved, I dumped the potting soil and put the plants themselves in a box, the posts together etc.then repotted them when I moved in. All good. I figured 2 things - no dirt to spill and they could use a repotting anyway.

My brother bought aquarium plants. They just put it in a sealed plastic bag with some water in it. I think that is good for a few days of the move.

Thing is, leaving it in the garage has the same effect, just not so bad.

True. Just look at a plastic gas can when temp drops 20deg or rises 20 deg. The gas can shrinks or bulges- that would vent or draw in air if it wasn't air tight.

JC JC, which part of the assembly are you looking for? The "clutch bearing"??

He is quitting because he only has so many beers to try....

Oh yeah, thanks. Forgot - so 3 causes...

You mean the pulley? I changed to a more bottom up pic. I just added the spacer(your bushing) to the earlier post. I didn't remove anything.

But it's not. The head of the bolt is on a bearing inside the disk. The bolt and the "spacer" do not spin. The spacer on one end holds the carriage bolt head that u see in the part: https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/U~8AAOSwM2ZgDGX4/s-l400.jpg

I've had that happen. Disconect the breather from the air filter holder so it doesn't pull air\oil from that hose and put the filter on(don't forget to cover the hole of the hose u removed). If it runs fine will confirm there is either blowby or too much oil i the motor as it is drawing oil into...

To remove parts 37/38 from the parts diagram, you will need a tool that holds part 38 or else when u turn the nut from underneath, this will just turn also. To get a "tool" to hold it, get a piece of crap wrench (22mm I recall) and grind it down so that it is only about 3/16" thick. Personally...

Oh yeah, when you read the wording they only warrant that they put it together correctly. What is the point of a LW? Either u got it assembled correctly or not, but it is a good sales pitch when the buyer doesn't know it doesn't cover what they THINK it covers and buys it. In the past, Echo's...

Yeah, I don't know if Suzuki stopped making motors or it was Toro's choice to switch their commercials with Suzuki to commercials with Hondas. Tiger, here is one of them:

If this has a oil fill plug on the side, remove the plug and look for oil would answer my question but if u want to get fancy, https://www.homedepot.com/p/RIDGID-CA-25-Micro-Visual-Inspection-Diagnostic-Handheld-Camera-w-2-7-in-Color-Display-4-ft-Fixed-Waterproof-Camera-Cable-40043/203258908...

I just came across one... '92, huh?? Person tossed it for carb problems(dirty bowl), but like slomo said- 31yo still solid as a rock. *update* It took 2 pulls to start and I took it for a spin after work.

A TroyBilt mower (with same motor as Toro Timemaster) did the same thing- top decal was starting to peel off. Can't they put the right sticker on the first time??

They happened to have Hustler, Cub Cadet, etc on display at a convention at the hotel I was at the other day. I mean Hustler?? Your lawn business must only cut 2 yards a day, right??? Or do u carry around 10 sets of batteries? ps. recent post home user trimmer battery went bad.... after only 2...

If you don't discharge the grass, ANY mower will bog down and die. Use the bag or get the discharge chute. That will solve your problem. As posted by others - electric won't solve your problem.

You know their next step will be to eliminate the fill tube\plug and just add oil before bolting the engine block together.

Stihl had no idea on the original 70's FS80 when I was looking for a part back in 2000- no parts diagram. So "I feel your pain".

Sorry, this is what I have.

Would u clarify- is it hard to pull start? Sqeeze the bar but not engage the blade and it is easy to pull\start. Yeah, it will run with the clutch removed.

Are you the original owner? It it not the gray deck? I don't know if it was all models but they did advertise lifetime warranty on those decks.

Glad to help. That's what we are here for...

While true, don't they ever look back and go "Wow, we destroyed the billion $ company we bought... That was a waste of money!" ? Probably not, because other companies don't learn from it.

Why do big companies keep buying other brands only to destroy them?? LawnBoy comes to mind. Now Snapper- or at least part at the moment. What a shame....

last hacker tidbit, but if finding the original OEM compatible tap head is too much trouble, Look up the gearbox for a current echo trimmer. I say this because I had an even older Echo DA200(70's-80's almost identical to original Stihl fs80) and the motor fit the current echo shaft. Don't know...

here is the 10oclock choke

If this is throttle pushed all the way forward to choke, then something is off with the cable. IF choke, the lever would be up right now. I have seen where the black jacket of the throttle cable has been compressed making the cable "too long" thus in your case, not choke. It is rare but possible...

Your top red arrow is correct- that is the level that leads to close the choke. Try it yourself and push that up and see if the choke closes. If it doesn't close, bend it down a little bit and check again. If ok, then try the throttle and see again. With your picture, it is currently not pushed...

Parent company had a marketing conference at the resort I was at for the weekend. These are demos for people to try out. Up until this, I didn't know hustler has the same parent company as cub cadet.

EXACTLY! Have wifey keep moving the throttle all the way forward and back. Now look just right of the air filter holder and you should see a piece turning as she moves the throttle. NOW....just left of the part turning, as she pushes it all the way forward(choke), it should lift a piece. This...

Take off the air filter. Push the throttle to choke\start. In the carb right behind the black plastic that holds the air filter, do u see a 'brass' "door" closed or still open?

That would just remove the adapter bolt Fish posted. That would leave u a bolt for a cutter head or the like which you would need to buy a LH\RH nut. (sorry I just noticed now, the yellow head with 6 pins- same as mine just not orange and not 8 pins. I was thinking 8 off top of my head.) When u...

Is the head orange plastic with the bottom like a big upside down cup that has like 8 holes that pins fall in??? If so, you pull it out then turn it to give it more string then the pins fall back into the holes. With the pic of the threads, maybe you should look at the Stihl(again) FS36 head...

*BUT* It looks like the Stihl FS81/86 which were made by Zenoah aka: Redmax so he could look at these for parts. Mickrick, If I were you, I would try a carb for a Stihl FS74 FS76 HT70 HT75 FS80R FS85R FS55 FS45 etc. It is the same size cube. That's what I did with my 80's Zenoah trimmer. BTW...

When you explained, did u get a Gilda Radner "Never mind." ?

So you mean start everything at idle? Just about everything I have starts with partial if not wide open. I added a button to hold the throttle open a hair on my McCullough 1-42 as it won't start at idle for the life of me. This would goof up the H screw closed, no? Oh well, I set them to...

I got a T262 recently myself. The motor also sells as SRM-2620 and looking at the pic, even both print thier brand on the machine the same way(sideways vertically), so it makes me wonder is there is any difference at all between echo and Shindaiwa. ps. the parent company is Yamabiko Corporation...

Yeah, that's what I think happened even though every time it was running lean.... I have had this happen before when xyz just won't start. I put it away and use another trimmer, blower, etc and next time, the trouble machine starts fine. As I posted, playing Whack-a-Mole, maybe some extra gas...
