    HRX 217

    10w30. Sounds good. I just changed the oil last week. I always fill the sump with 13 oz. It leaves roughly 2 hashmarks on the dipstick that are not covered in oil when I pull it to check. I ran her for about 2 hours yesterday. Oil is still brown, but now I have 4 hashmarks that are...

    HRX 217

    Hello everyone. My 2016 Hrx 217 with a GCV190 motor is beginning to concern me. First off, the oil (Honda SAE30) is turning black fast 1-2 cuts. I live in Florida and mow a half acre with her. I have used it in Rhode Island, Alaska, and now here. Also noticed every time I start it, a puff of...

    Help needed please

    Hey thank you so much. I only use 89 octane non-ethanol. I go through one tank of fuel every week because I have a big yard. I might have found the problem. A Honda dealership told me to look at the butterfly valve for the choke. If it is open when the motor is cold then that's a problem. I just...
