New Chevy question
One common problem is with the AFM 4 cylinder system. The lifters in the 4 cylinders that get deactivated have a small screen in the oil passage. If you drive with light loads often, run in 4 cyl mode often, these screens start to gum up and the problem is worse if you stretch your oil changes...- fredster

John Deere 455 mower opinions.
It has a yanmar diesel which is pretty much bulletproof. The 455 was the ultimate interpretation of the original 400 series HD garden tractor. Well-built machines. I would buy it.- fredster
