    Lawn tractor belt

    There are some mowers out there that if you engage the blades at idle it more than doubles the chance it will throw the belt. If you watch the belt, at idle it snaps like a whip for 3 to 5 seconds before it gets the blades up to speed. The quicker the belt gets to speed the less time there is to...

    Snapper dilema

    I remember there was one of those that had a bare wire that ran through the tube up to the pedal switch once. I have seen those modules (you describe as a relay) bad too.

    John Deere Lx188

    Since it sounds like you have checked everything else, you either have an intake leak or a stopped up carburetor. Does putting the choke on partially help?

    Cub Cadet 1450 iso bushings.

    Got the engine off the 1450. Somebody has replaced the iso bushings with chunks of old car tires. Does anyone have an aftermarket part number for an iso bushing that works? Like a shock absorber bushing maybe? What else was in there besides the bushings? its just bolts and tire chunks in...

    I Think It Will Work

    I did similar when I got my wire welder. Only I used the angle iron from Chinese shipping crates. How else you gonna learn to run the thing if you don't make something with it? Mine is probably about as tall as yours and it hasn't tipped yet.

    questions BS 16 hp twin

    The way you describe the flow sounds about right. You can try the other pump, it should work about the same-pulse a little fuel every time the pistons goe up or down in their cylinders. I don't think Briggs offers repair kits for the square pump any more. The round pump is the replacement...

    Cub Cadet Carb Issues

    First, if your CC 1200 is like mine, it has no fuel pump, so the pump is not causing your problem. I"m guessing you have replaced the float valve in these carburetors. The old steel needle and seat had to be about perfect to stop the fuel flow. There is also supposed to be a seal under the...

    Techumse just old or what?

    If it hasn't run but 20 min. since last fall the cause of your problem is old gas, not a defective 'new' carburetor. The ethanol in must gas you buy attacks the rubber on the needle valve in the carburetor. After that, It doesn't seal and the carburetor leaks gas. In a lot of cases, The...

    Circling at JD170 mower/snowblower

    Just to let you know: I worked on my Uncle's 160 back in the late 80s. Its not that much newer than your 212. You need to come up quite a few years to get to something more modern. If you are going to tow two 5 ft. swisher mowers, you really need a compact tractor. It has the transmission and...

    JD STX38 steering

    Not sure on that model, but most of the smaller JD riders have all the steering components under the frame. You may not have to take the tank off.

    Oil sump filter question

    Surely someone has the correct floating screen for that tractor. I would call Wendell Everett 740-922-3335 or Welters 417-498-6496. Or you can replace the screen that was on there. Wendell Everett sent me one for my Z back in the "90s. A good used part would work. That said, One of those late...

    Chainsaw, learned something

    well, if it wasn't carbon monoxide, it was carbon dioxide or some other gas in the combustion byproducts displacing the normal air mix.

    BS Carburetor Pickup Tube - HOW DO I INSTALL??
