Pull the PTO clutch off the PTO shaft and see if it goes away
Yes = failing bearing in the clutch
If not pull the blower housing off and run for a couple of minutes
Let us know how you go

THANKS Bert for the reply! Appreciate it my friend!!! What would the blower housing possible solve?

Something stuck under there whistling in the cooling breeze
A leaking breather

While the blower housing is off. great time to make sure the Engine is clean & free of debris & between the cylinder fins.

I pull my housing off end of each mow season.

Spartan RZ-C? With a Briggs engine and Tuff-Torq transmission? Seriously? Lowest of the low grade quality engines and what is Tuff-Torq? Has anyone heard of that manufacture before? No thanks Randal.

Tuff Torq has been around for years. Used on many of JD ZTRs.

Tuff Torq no thanks. John Deere is not a brand I would consider buying. It's all abut the engine and transmissions.
