mine had noise due to harmonics and that may be what is breaking yours, I split a hunk of pool noodle and ip tied it around the spring, that stopped it.

my Diesel Z uses a 5/8 x 11 x 3 inch bolt for the blade bolts. They are a grade 5 bolt. Wondering if a grade 8 bolt would be ok in this application. I have the grade 8 bolts in the bin, no grade 5's.

At this point, I'm just going to go around any broken splice or blown diode and run a new wire and a new diode, That entire wire harness is wrapped up in some very nice yellow netting that looks substantial. Not going to go in there and make a mess of that. I am a neat freak so the wire will be...

I rechecked the buzzer and it is ok. I initially just jumpered a hot and ground to it and it warbled. I know it also is triggered when you leave the key on without the motor running and it sounded when I did that. I found that it uses the oil pressure switch to tell it the motor is running or...

I never got them to work, but finally realized that I don't need them. I probably won't run through two fills a year with this. I mow about 8 acres every other week. I have found that the diesels burn very little fuel. I used to mow with a Ferguson 20 that held 7 gallons of gasoline and I had to...

Thank you sir for the response. I am beginning to understand how this circuit works. Making sense now. I could not figger out why they put diodes in there in the first place! Hustler did a nice job on those wire looms and I hate cutting into them randomly looking for those diodes. I think I will...

sound like a plan. The buzzer has been working. I checked the leads on it with the engine running and was showing a light on both sides, I was using a probe light, battery was dead on my meter, but I will check it in the next few days, cold in the shop right now. thank you ! if I the value of...

with key on, grounding the sender wire does not bring the light on. the other side of the light does have 12 volts and works with a jumper wire to the sender. So. there is an open in the sender wire from the sender to the light. (evidently) this wirew also goes through a diode to the warning...

wiring schematic is section 5

928614 is the model number, sorry

I have the number wrong, it is 928614A instead, number is rather difficult to read.

I found that new Caterpillar yellow matched near perfect. rattle can from Attwoods farm store.

temperature warning light does not work. changed temp switch, still no work. Old switch appeard to be new and ohmed out like it was for a gauge, so I think it was the wrong switch. no markings. I changed it to an old timey warning light switch, (Standard TS 66 for a light. had to retap the...
