Hi John,

Don't waste your time or money with dealer or independent small engine repair shops. The techs have no training and mostly guess and throw new parts at everything.

Don't get me wrong, there are a few 1-man operations that really know what they are doing, but they are getting harder to find.

For parts, I suggest Parts tree or even eBay if you have the correct part number. Jacks small engine is another good source.

Just remember that you have to use the engine product ID label for any engine related parts and most other parts will require using the chassis product label located under the seat or on the seat mount frame

Yes, I'm learning. I hope to enjoy the summer messing with all the yard equipment. All new to me. Thanks

You don't mean we are dying breed do you?

Well I worked for other man running basically one operation for 16 yrs then they decide I wasn't needed anymore. I couldn't find a job afterwards. Even JD turned me but after a year they wanted to hire me. Well I got tell them "No I longer need you for employment since I started my own shop." And I have been working myself and self training since 2009.

And I remember one time when I was dealing my mother's health problem that a Good customer to JD because I couldn't the work at the time. JD charged him 8 hrs of labor to change a hydro fan which was a 30 min job. I called the local dealer and asked why they charged so much for a simple job. He said it a new tech that didn't know what he was doing. So he refunded my customer 7 hrs of labor. My customer was very appreciated that I came to bat for him.
