Ok. I am going to scratch this off my list. This seems better.

I have not even looked into asking about hours...just wanted to see if it is something worth pursuing.

I have been looking for a used commercial zero turn for my 5-7 acres of mowing that I do on the farm. I don't know much about Grasshopper, other than they are good machines. However, I was not able to find much information on a model that is for sale near me. Anyone know anything about these...

Question about the big picture. I am going to delete the plunger from the carb solenoid valve. That leaves the kill wire and two "red" wires that I need to connect to. The old engine looks like the following: The DC on this is white and red. However, the two wires on the new motor are...
