Drain hose replace on 2004 hustler 60 inch super z model 927038. With sideways Kohler engine.
I need to replace the drain hose and I was wondering if anybody has a link to a video on how to do it. It looks like you have to lift the engine up to get the failed one off. What a horrible design. I am the original owner and I did a fix on it but it only lasted 10 years and now it’s leaking and I need to replace it. Also, if you have figured out something different to put on there, any help would be appreciated. I have heard you have to remove all the pulleys and belts from underneath and lift the whole engine up to replace this. What a nightmare. I want to do it myself and I’m sure it’s extremely expensive if I take it to a shop.

Well if it has a hose drain then someone replace the oil drain in the past.

And yes you got job ahead of you to access it. I did the same ZTR engine twice in one week back in the Summer. Half a day job when you got the tools and know what you are doing.
Now flexable Drainzit drain hose can used as a replacement.

ANd just think I got a customer that has a transplants Briggs engine and the only to change the air filter is to remove the tail fin.

Crap! I am the original owner. It came with the flexible one. I’d like to install the one you showed. Can you give me any help. Maybe best to pay someone. 🙄
 
Thanks much for help. Do I have to remove the exsaust. Do I have to remove the pulleys? How much comes off to get to engine bolts.
 
Ok. Thanks. How about underneath, the pulley's etc. Boy glad I had the muffler off about 3 years ago. Hope not fused to manifold again.
 
I know u have much better things to do than answer my questions and want you to know I appreciate it. I hate paying someone to do something I may be able do.
