I forgot to mention that I never mow grass even damp, I fixed my problem I put more aggressive tires on the rear and it works just fine. I would put that thing on a slight incline and it would slide right in.

BINGO! As the old saying goes you get out of it what put into it.

Rivets has it correct, the wiring on just about everything is minimum gauge so the companies can save a bunch of money. When I replace I always go larger and solder everything.

All nuts or bolts are threaded so they stay tight depending on the rotation or power applied, Chrysler used left hand threads on their wheel lugs and I think they figured that they didn't need to do that. If you torque your wheel nuts they won't come loose. I always use (never seize) on my mower...

I forgot to mention if that is an air operated impact put a little oil in where the air hose connects and that will raise the power.

It sounds to me like you guys need to remove your blades more often. Ha!Ha!

It's your carb, it either still has crap in it or an air leak at the base gasket. Does it have a fuel pump, if so it could be restricting fuel. How about checking the float level also, all this could be the problem, it doesn't matter what carb you have a carb is a carb. Don't buy a new Chinese...

Here it is 2021 and I finally noticed something, the left tire on my Snapper is reversed from the right tire, in other words the aggressive tread is reversed from the right tire and I believe that is why I am losing traction on my left tire. I have tried on level dry ground and the left tire...

If the oil is low it shouldn't start in the first place. Most oils today have a film strength even if you run low on oil there will be enough protection to not create a problem. Check your spark plug and see if you have any aluminum splatters on the insulator and look inside the hole and see if...

Thanks guys, I figured that was the problem, I just wanted to get it confirmed. My Kubota tractor has a lot of water in the rear wheels plus it has a lever you can press down to lock all four wheels, that one has saved me several times. I mow in the evening when everything is dry, but the St...

Folks, I have a Snapper X50ST Pro zero turn that has no traction on rear tires, if I am on an incline the up hill tire will lose traction, if I am on a level surface I have to come to a complete stop to turn so I don't lose traction and tear up the grass, I don't see this in other models. It is...

Timc, Most newer engines have an auto low oil shut off, so if it started you are alright check your manual and keep your oil changed and full. Wingstrut

Helirapter, i am sure you probably purchased a new mower by now, but I will give you my experience on the Pro S50XT. Mine came with the Kawasaki 600 industrial engine and it is a trouble free smooth and powerful engine, the mower has performed flawlessly except for one thing, the tires aren't...
