Hi guy's! Sorry it took me so long to respond. I just had my knee's replaced a month ago & have been concentrating on making them work. So far a complete sucess. Anyway I like to work on lawn mowers as a hobby in my retirement from caterpillar tractor co. 36yrs there. My wife and I live on 40 acres in the country by Havanna Ill, and we mow 7 of the 40. So we own two woods mow'in machines, a 61" 25hp and a 52" 18hp. We also own a72" 24hp John Deere F930 and a ford industrial tractor with a woods RM660 72" finish mower on the back. In addition we have a Toro sxt13-38 &a lawnboy push mower. As you can see I have enough mowers of my own to work on but I usally end up working on all my relatives & neighbors machines I just thought I would enjoy talking to some of you guys about problems I've had and maybe I might be able to help solve someone else's problem. well thanks for listening to my B. S. Talk to ya later ERN
