The 700 series is still made Eatons did not shut down they just stopped making drives for mowers because the mower companies would not pay for the quality The hydro is repairable but you will just have to find a Eatons transmission service centre and bring them the transmission I have one of the...

here are 2 types of solenoids. One has 2 wires and the black wire will go to a small bolt on the engine some where These do break off or fall off The other kind have 1 wire and ground through the carburettor body If the carb is mounted to a plastic manifold there will be no ground so they have...

Spark + fuel + compression = bang One of the 3 is missing So some where in the dark pull the plug out, lay it on a metal part and pull the starter Spark = good , no spark , try a new plug Still no spark take off the cover and remove the small wire form the coil Spark = bad switch or chaffed...

You can never ever crimp that tight even with a a hydraulic press That is an old wives tale FWIW I rarely ever use those cheap internal terminals I use proper automative ones where the sides of the terminal penetrate the insulation so stop it from pulling back as it gets ols & shrinks leaving...

Trimmer line is made from a bio degradable plastic so after a year or so it crumbles up and vanishes What causes it to break down is the oxygen in the air and of course UV rays People buy big rolls of line because it is a lot cheaper than do-nuts but unless you do a lot o trimming it will go...

Trick with barn ( shed ) cats is only feed them in the morning so they are hungry all night I have black, brown, tiger & whip snakes here, all venomous So you learn to look before you put your hands anywhere Always stand behind anything you want to lift so the opening is on the other side of...

Are you sure it is feeding in ? Line goes hard with age ( should be kept under water ) If you do not keep feeding it out then it snaps off at the eyelet

I will double up on what Star said I managed to totally stuff an Extreme clutch by using my rattle gun Expensive lesson learned Had to make an offset open ender from some scrap 3/16" steel plate to hold the crankshaft from turning while tensioning the clutch. And I know it will sound silly, but...

It is not the workers wanting too much money, it is the managers & shareholders wanting too much profits without spending any money When you stand in front of a machine that is making 100 carburettor gaskets per minute, the hourly rate of the worker is insignificant . But when you are working...

Thanks Tiger I wanted to make sure I was not doing anything wrong What yo suggested is what I did The only other information I saw said to run at 1/2 throttle then open & close the purge valve which sounded weird but I tried that as well. I have had hydros that took forever to purge to the...

I would be inclined to check the pushrods first as that is easy & cheap, if you used a gasket . However those thin steel pushrods tend to vanish into the engine at the drop of a hat and then it becomes a big expensive job

Nothing is off the cards but I still do not know the sequence for purging air from the system I am pretty sure it is air as the wheel spins as normal when off the ground and the pump is quite in use All the other dead pumps / motrs that moan & groan when they start to wear .

Thanks Ilengine & Tiger but I would be surprised if that is the case as this mower only has 500 hours on it . I put a new engine in it 2 years ago because he failed to tighten the oil filter properly and is one of these clots who listens to podcasts while he mows It was also running quite fine...

Yes so I turned up a new cone

Double check those valve clearances. good chance one has opened up & pushrod fallen off .

Got a 2007 JD 425 Z track with the sideways engine and a DUP 10 E pump driving a pair of wheel motors ( M0Z425J040186 ) /DUP10E # 10E035050 It wrapped up some wire around the drive & clutch , ripping the clutch off So it got pushed around a lot because the owner is trying an insurance claim...

I started life in computers with the UNSW's brand spanking new IBM 360 running Fortran ( Horrid OS ) and optical mark cards . Then when both teaching & studying at TAFE we got a PDP 10 running basic but still optical mark cards Then it was NSW IT to do the MSc ( never finished ) and for that I...

From the top we need the model number off the ID and the serial some times helps Then we need the part number of the new cable There are a lot of cables that look very similar but they will not interchange .

What switch where ?

Any thing with a cast iron sleeve or full cast iron cylinder

Anything with the same size crankshaft 2 diameters 1" or 1.125" Only another kawasaki will be plug & play bcause the plugs are all different .

Mulligans used to do repairs and also retail upgrade kits . Ring them up be polite , have the model & serial off the tractor & off the transmission handy Be polite, they have always been quite honest with me .

This is what happens when the pentagon interferes with private enterprise & forces a successful domestic manufacturer to merge with a failed military manufacturers and forces the military side to have a majority of board members . So you outsource the most difficult bit and then have a scape...

Use a strong flash night and look at the engine pulley if it is polished nice & shinny at the root then it is worn out. Have a look at the belt , it should show wear on the sides but not on the narrow end of the V The usual cause is the pivot hole on the clutch tension arm worn oval and the...

It makes no difference other than the fact that engines designed to run on full synthetic often have tighter clearances & smaller oil galleries. This is because synthetics wet better and flow better . While I doubt this is the case when you are talking about an engine that is built down to a...

It is a dead man system meaning that the brake is normally on & the power turns it off . It is impossible to slip unless the teeth are very badly worn or the spring that holds the arms to the cogs is week Unless you get good air under you wheels I cannot see their being enough inertia in the...

I hope you mean the the hot wire on the plug reads 6.5V . This will be because of a bad or dirty connection It has a plug behind the starter motor and the only other one is at the key switch Back probe the socket at the key switch, check for full battery voltage and at the plug near the starter...

If you have a rectangular hole under the front of the seat with a slider that goes up & down to show the fuel level the usual culprit is the plastic bracket the fuel tank sits on You will have to remove both rear wheels to get to it Some times the spring stretches but usually the bracket breaks...

The 100 series is the big box store cheapie models and the trannies are good for around 100- hours on flatish yards with no trailer use. Run the engine at anythingless than full speed and that can drop as low as 500 hrs Usually a change to 20W 50 will get another 100 or so hours out of it

The brake is a rack & pinion The teeth do brake off or wear down over time However line the others I would expect it to be sliding Rather than the wheels turning . Both Rack & pinion are wear parts so are replaceable but they are NOT PART OF THE MOWER. They are part of the pump/motor unit so...

neither have I apart from the drive pin on one tension wrench Then again I have Hazet , Britool , Sidchrome ,Dufore , MiniMax, Koken & Stahlwillie mostly because I do not buy crap tools Different brands for different types of threads because I work on old British cars & bikes where they take...

Because of Biden's good work the economy is booming the share market are at all times highs and money is at a reasonable rate so that sets the scene for well run businesses to borrow big against their share price & expand .

I keep mine on coloured rails blue = metric red = US green = Whit + BA +BSC + Ad

The 100 series are RESIDENTIAL mowers so 120 hours or 2 years is about right Big box store was your first mistake because big box = big profit for the store They are made by JD & are substantally better than the exact same design ( JD probably pay royalties to AYP ) machines with the AYP...

We have been down this rabbit hole before and unfortunately you are wrong. The 100 series is the same design as the AYP ( Husqvarna ) mowers to the point that a lot of mower parts are interchangeable The JD's are built substantially better . A long time ago an employee of the factory where they...

Well what do you expect A long time ago I came across a clot who rather than clean a carburettor he suggested stuffing foam into the air inlet to reduce the air flow And latter on he actually sold round foam plugs

It is thicker because it is made from a cheaper lower strength steel, not because it is better Look at the premium snap ons and Sthalwilie spannars that are 1/2 the thickness because they are made from a much stronger steel .

If you are adding saw dust you should add some nitrogen as the wood decomposing consumes a lot of nitrogen

When stationary the bob weights are withdrawn so the governor is relaxed and the only pressure comes from the governor spring People get confused which they should not because anything that is governed ( including people ) gets held back , slowed down , restricted. So the governor spring pulls...

Start the engine Put your finger on the governor arm and push it to slow the engine The slower the engine the harder the arm should push back against your finger Check that the governor spring is attached a they can fall off

Shimmed cranks usually fail pretty quickly so get a new PTO clutch Remove the kawakasi blower cover and trace where all the wires go to then label the engine side of the plug . JD change the wire colours at every switch and some times the plugs as well The full wiring diagram is in the JD...

So that is for the transverse V 4 I gather ?

If it came new with synthetic oil then the assumption is it was designed to run synthetic oil Down side is it still needs to be changed every season unless you put a stirrer in the sump when it is not in use so it becomes very expensive very quickly . What I always say what goes in is no where...

And most of the true conservative are not standing , they are all fed up with the maga antics so can not allow their good name to be associated with this do nothing congress . They just has the republican convention ( where trump agains did his grifting ) and interestingly, there was no one...

I am expecting "mystery buyers" ( with russian accents ) to purchase around 1,000,000 of the 1,000 limited edition shoes, actually they will have to buy 1,800 pairs for him to get the $ 4,000,000 that he does not have to post surety for the appeal that he will loose . He has to find $ 86,000,000...

When you do a search , you have to do more than just read the headlines. So I went to ebay as you suggested and all but one were listed as pre-orders and every image was taken off trumps promo site One sellers ( who did not have the shoes ) has 0 sales teamso-14 and joined in Feb 2024 and every...

Lube the pivot on the belt tensioner arm and make sure it is free to swing .

So you believe some thing that trump says ? Go back to the trump web site and read the fine print There are no shoes apart from the pair trump had at sneaker con Read the sales conditions The Midas Touch went through the whole thing just the same as they went through trump steak, the tump bed...

So here is the truth about sneakers There was only ever one pair of them and none will ever be made .The one & only pair were auctioned and were bought for $ 9,000 by the CEO of a russian company . See the video below from about minute if you want to avoid the politics

Electronics industry is mostly in the west, that factory is now making parts for drones .
