    JD- ZtrackZ425

    Total cost including tax for the new Z325E-54" cut was 2894.65 out the door. It was 30% off if you filled out a credit app and you were not required to use the credit, I paid cash. Original price was 3799.00 before tax, after tax total, 4131.41 verses 2894.65.

    8 inch stripe longer grass being left?

    Did this problem just start happening, or has it always done this? -- If it has always done this, it could be a bad deck where one of the spindle cut out is wrong. Is the belt on correctly. Belt maybe slipping on the blade that is not cutting the 6-8 inch strip. Go thru the middle of your non...

    Took valve cover off. one exhaust and intake pushrods, one was laying under rocker arm broke, the other I assume is in the bottom of the engine. I ordered both rods, both valve tappets. Is there anything else I need to order? Can rods be replaced without breaking down the engine?

    If that was the case, wouldn't it make a loud knocking noise while running. It does run but only on one cylinder. I did take the spark plug out and started it and air came out of the cylinder.

    My mower is a 54" cut JD Zero Turn. I have 5 acres that are uneven, hills, dips. I have gone thru lots of anti scalp wheels because when turning they dig into the lawn. I have been mowing my property for 25 years and have not been able to fix the problem. I have reset the wheels to every...
