It may not be in the phone settings but is in the camera app settings. My phone has 4:3 (8.0M) down to 1:1 (2.4M) I have the factory installed app but I use another better phone app installed and they both have these adjustments.

If you check most phone and cameras have a picture sizing adjustment if you change it the size will be what ever you set it at. If you do this just remember to set it back if you want the better picture size of other things you save. By doing this you will not need any over software to change...

If you are lucky you may find plastic trash cans that would fit your frame or at least close to it. I have a Craftsman but mine uses heavy plastic tubes but the newer one use cloth type bags.

Back to first question are you sure that the fuel lines are in the proper places? I did this before and drove me nuts but was just a mistake in line placement. The carb for sure will still need adjustments to be correct. That bulb should be filling with fuel for priming.

Just a guess but if you can get the motor numbers off the motor maybe it would give you an idea of a year of manufacture at that point go to Craftsman site and see if you can come up with parts for chippers made around the era that have that motor installed. They may have pictures of units in...

As stated, this seal was new and installed when I did the sump gasket that was only 2 months ago. I have used the tractor 3 times since the second seal installation and doing leaves and looking at the new seal with a mirror it still is looking dry. I have the tractor set up with the snow blower...

This may be a rant but maybe not, a few months ago I found the sump gasket leaking oil on my Craftsman. tractor with 22.5hp Briggs engine so I did this repair myself and all went well I did all the things I felt needed to get this done correctly as I'm a senior with Copd so things don't go easy...

Could you explain the 1" scalp wheel setting? I have mine set to 1/2in off the ground in my normal setting height on flat surface. How and were are you measuring that 1in from? Thanks

No one has really answered the OPs real question of where the spring gets attached or did, I miss something. Seems they got a lot of good help but not an answer about the spring.

I don't have hour meter but here is my thought, you could just remove the power to the meter keep track of your hours manually till it gets to were you need it than hook it back up. Next if you want to take the chance disconnect the power feed from the switch or wherever it comes from and then...

Just putting this out there but wouldn't a metal shut off valve be a better option than those plastic ones? I am also thinking of adding one to my tractor. They are a bit more expensive but may last longer maybe.

PT if you go to Ace Hardware you can get an adaptor to do what you need, I had to get one when I used wash machine flexable metal hose on my garden hose box.

Thank you, guys, for the information and like I said this job is done and right now doing well no more gasket leake at this time. The engine mount bolts, I,m just going to let them go for now and will check them in the furture and if any one of them loosen up I,ll remove them and do the Loctite...

Like I said these bolts did look as you said kind of triangle shaped and tapered at the start of the threads, but being as how I removed them to remove engine do you think they will stay put the second time around? I did use a 1/2in 20v battery impact wrench when I put it back together. As long...

So, I had started a post a while back and didn't get any replays to my questions but after rereading the post I think I know why they were stupid questions. I did go back and edited the post and took out all of the dummy questions. Anyway, so I got this job done and so far, everything is fine...
