I just bought a Lawn Boy 42" z340 hlx zero turn and I'm working on getting it fixed up. It has the Honda GXV530 engine. I've gotten it to fire up and it idles great but has some problems that need to be fixed to be usable.
The hydro's make a horrible noise when moving around. The previous owner said one side was going bad, (that's why it's been sitting for 1.5 years before he put it up for sale)
The other issue is when you try to move in any direction (PTO not engaged), the motor will bog down and act like it wants to die.
My main question is does anyone know if any of these main parts are interchangeable with other brands? Finding any info about these online is impossible, much less finding parts. I know Toro bought Lawn Boy so I'm hoping their main parts are the same? I'd like to try to fix/replace the hydros myself if possible vs taking it to a shop.
If anyone has any info at all on these, that would be greatly appreciated! Thanks
