What is OPE? Other Peoples Equipment?

Air up the tires to equal pressure Front and Rear. Park on a Level surface and use a 2x3 or 4 and level the deck , a 1/8" lower on front. Check both sides. Mow your lawn on an angle the next time.. Check all blades for equal sharpness.

Since it has been very poorly maintained, not likely. Expensive repairs - $500 + to fix Oil leak, sharpen blades, check belts etc. Get Compression checked FIRST if going the repair route.

It seems many oil Filters are built in India. Fram does not have a good name in Filters. I believe that Companies like John Deere have certain Specifications that filters must meet. Who knows if this is ever checked or not (Micron size that passes). Use the largest size possible Dealer...

Have you bypassed the Safety Switches? You have done everything else except replace coils

You have it well in hand it seems. Backup for Backup. The switchover works well but the Propane adjustment should be constant with no adjustment required. Propane has Less BTU energy than Gasoline. Burn temps are within 35°F of each other in the 3,450 F range. What IS damaging is using E-15...

Are you considering using Gasoline AND Propane on the same unit? Different Carburation is involved. Propane does NOT damage Pistons. I use N.G. in my 14KW Generac. A 20 lb tank is quite small to be used on a Generator.

Well Said Sir. This should be the Final comment!

Thanks for your reply. It is worse than I thought!

The Diagram for blade sharpening profile is in my J. D. Manual. I won't try to explain serrated edges to You.

Terryldactyl: Small engines. Google him. You don't get the 'balance' thing.

Do NOT engage your blades at idle. Belts are stretching.. Blades are NOT to be a knife edge but actually square, 0.050 vertical gives 2 cutting edges. This Topic should be ended now.
