There is no tag under the seat. I got this second hand or maybe even third .Ok lets ave a think
MTD made over 90 different mowers
These mowers used 7 different transmissions
Do you have 12 hours to read the 952 pages that will be needed to cover all of them before I take 3 days to dictate into the computer ?
OR you could simply post the numbers off the the ID tag under the seat so we all know what you are talking about
I have not tried anything. Im just asking for ideas on what causes these things.No unit numbers, but what about engine numbers? At least with those we might be able to determine year of manufacture. How able some pictures so it looks like we are standing next to you, instead of a thousand miles away where COVID has ruined our psychic abilities. How long has this been going on and what have you tried to do to resolve the problem? When was the last time you did a complete service on the unit? Total engine tuneup, drive tuneup, deck tuneup, etc. You need to help us help you.
Well I can only hopeSeeing you are only willing to provide us with as little info as possible, can’t even type in engine numbers, I’ll provide an answer to your questions and then you are on your own.
