    cub cadet XT-1 oil drain leak.

    i noticed a oil spot on the garage floor & then noticed the drain is leaking. it has the yellow twist & pull style drain. this is a Kohler 7000 24 h.p. engine. it was due for an oil change so when the oil filter was removed i could access the assembly & tightened it. it took near 2 full...

    GMC dash lights

    " will not pay $400 to diagnose a $50 problem." me either. i just found out that a fellow beekeeper works in parts at a local GM dealer. maybe i can get him to glean some information. the light i use is a small key ring/carabiner with an tiny led light

    GMC dash lights

    the speedo & tach do not light up, just the bottom row. I do not drive at night that often & have been checking my speed now & again with a mini mag light when i do. I can get by without fixing it. It's just frustrating that I can't.

    GMC dash lights

    the dial controls dimming & the dome light. i tried all the switch positions. saw one video that says if the dash sensor isn't working the lights won't come on during daylight hours so that might rule that out. a couple more videos say that dash lights can quit if you have a headlight or tail...

    was diagnosis could run up to 400.00 not sure that it is the sensor. does that sound like the most likely culprit?

    GMC dash lights

    I mostly post on the 8N forum & it was suggested there that I run this by y'all. I've tried a few GM forums, & you tube. The dealer is no help even though they probably know exactly what' the issue is. I have a 2011 GMC Sierra 1500 4x4. ext, cab with 294 V-8. During the day my dash lights work...

    OT-GMC dash lights

    the dimmer does function during the day & turns the dome light on & off day or night. i did sign up on a couple gm forums & got nowhere. no codes have been checked. i've not had a tractor for a good while but still sign on to read about things. i will try this on the other forum. thanks for...

    OT-GMC dash lights

    something that i forgot to mention that likely matters...my fuel gauge, temp. gauge, odometer, & warning lights do work at night.

    OT-GMC dash lights

    oldsarge-same here...give me an old tractor or a 50's/60's truck & I'm fine. this does have the auto light feature. there's a smoke colored plastic bubble on the dash & i think that that is what it's for. if that's the issue the whole dash would need to be taken apart to access it & I'd live...

    OT-GMC dash lights

    This is where I come when I'm stumped. I've tried a few GM forums and you tube & dealer won't help even though they probably know exactly what' the issue is. I have a 2011 GMC Sierra 1500 4x4. during the day my dash lights work. at night, no go. they do occasionally flicker. headlight switch...

    westinghouse generator

    i've already invested in a 18 ft 6 gauge cable, a special plug on the outside wall, & the wiring into the dedicated breaker. at the time i bought this nobody had a transfer switch in stock. so even if it's a p.i.t.a. i'll pull the meter which will solve the backflow issue.

    westinghouse generator

    best thing then would be to pull my meter when i use the generator.
