My Cub Cadet has mower blades that have a star shape hole in the middle that requires a compatible blade and prevents the blade from spinning on the spindle (which I know can be a good or bad thing). But the Hustler Fastrak 60 uses round holes. Does that mean pretty much any three blade system...

I have no idea why my update was not showing up so I made another. Then it shows both. When I tried to delete the second one both of them got deleted so I'm leaving them both up.

Dealer replaced the oil drain spigot thing and said it was leaking where it mounted to the engine. They didn't charge me anything and even picked it up and dropped it off. After running it once for about 15 minutes I can see no leaking oil but I will watch it like a hawk for a while and put a...

Well Update time. They picked it up and dropped it off after a week and told me it was the oil drain spigot where it mounted to the engine. I guess it must have been pooling where I couldn't see it then the fan was blowing it around when the engine was running. They didn't charge me a single...

After looking for a long time cannot find it. I do know the bottom of the plate the engine is mounted to is pretty much covered in oil after about 10 minutes of running. If I'm not mistaken it has a three year warranty and I've only had it over 1 year so I have sent it in to get looked at by the...

I can't tell where it's coming from. Anybody have any ideas? I've tightened the oil drain spiggot. Only leaks when engine is running. Should I just try to get it looked at under warranty? YT video for reference.

the number on my filter that came on the mower (fastrak 60 kawasaki ft-730) is 49065-0721 I do have more room for a much taller filter which I'd like to move to. There are so many confusing part numbers that "replace" other part numbers. Can anyone tell me a good "longer" oil filter to use for...

Owners manual calls for 10w40 but 10w30 is acceptable within certain temps. I've seen the Kawasaki oil but it is semi-synthetic and most other 10w40 full synthetic is of the high mileage variety. And other Full synthetic oil of 10w40 is motorcycle specific. I'm not sure either of the Motorcycle...

Having a hard time finding the right oil filter. My Fastrak has the FT730v Kawasaki engine. Are you guys OK with using a non-Kawasaki oil filters and if so which one is a good one. I wouldn't mind something cheaper and even a little longer than the OEM one. Also does anyone know if the Hydros...
