I will keep looking. Husqvarna Support was of no help....they just referenced the IPL,

Thank you. I'll jack up the mower in the next few days, and see if I can find this switch.

This mower has a "reverse" position on the ignition switch. Unless the key is in the "reverse" position, the mower engine should shut off when trying to go backwards. Recently, my mower runs in reverse in both the "run" and reverse positions. I replaced the ignition switch, but that did...

These new gas can spouts are a real PITA.

Fixed, I hope. Star Tech was right about the pulleys. The "V" pulleys seemed ok, but the "Flat" pulley had a big damaged spot about an inch long....looked like a part of that plastic pulley had melted. I replaced all 3 pulleys and the drive and deck belts. It was a bit of a chore, but after...

Yes, its a TuffTorq K46, and their website has some good info. I also found some video's on UTube that might help. We've got some running around this week....doctor, dentist appt's, etc., so later in the week I think I'll remove the deck and crawl around underneath it and see if there are any...

Thanks for the suggestions. I will take a closer look at the drive belt pulleys, etc., in coming days, At least the mowing season is pretty much over for this year, and I'll have plenty of time to work on this before Spring arrives. I looked at the cost of replacing the transaxle, and it...

I bought this mower in 2018, and it has 328 hours on it. I keep it well maintained and about the only trouble I've had was a leaking front tire that I fixed with some "Slime". Today, it barely creeped forward, but if I pushed the pedal to full reverse, it nearly pushed me forward off the seat...

I went out today to do some mowing and my Yth24v48 would barely move "forward". Reverse moved strong. I found that if I barely pushed the Forward pedal, I could get it to move, but the further I pushed the pedal the less it would move. I used it about 10 days ago and it worked fine. I...

I had the same trouble with my Toro Personal Pace, last year. After trying several things, I installed a new spark plug, and it hasn't failed since. The old plug looked ok, but apparently when it got hot, it failed.

I've been buying and selling on EBAY for over 20 years....well over 800 transactions. I have only had One issue, and EBAY/seller quickly refunded my money.

I've got a Toro Personal Pace that is at least 10 years old. I change the oil and filter as recommended, and it still works great. I may get a new set of front wheels before Spring, but that's about it after hundreds of hours mowing. OH...and a couple of spark plugs.

We drove past a nearby John Deere dealership yesterday, and their lot was nearly empty. Usually they have dozens of tractors of all sizes sitting out front, but there were only about 5 or 6 tractors there....all of them the larger models. It appears that the supply chain and manufacturing...

I have a mulching "plate" for my Husqvarna riding mower, and I just slip that on, and take a nice ride around the yard. That grinds the leaves up nicely, and ads some "nutrients" to the soil for next years lawn. We live in a dense forest full of Oak, Walnut and Hickory trees, and if leaves had...

I've got the same mower. A couple of years ago, mine acted the same way. After "fussing" with it for a couple of hours, I discovered that I had inadvertently pulled the "attachment clutch switch"...which engages the deck clutch/drive. I pushed the button back down and it fired right up...

Never mind...I figured it out. There is a "air" hose going from the air filter housing to the gas tank....allows some air pressure to build up in the tank. There was some sort of "obstruction" in that hose....not allowing enough fuel pressure to the carb at full throttle. I replaced that...

My BR340 backpack blower starts and runs good for a minute or two when cold. However when it warms up, it bogs down badly at full throttle. I replaced the fuel filter, air filter, and spark plug...no change. I removed the muffler spark arrestor...no change. I bought an aftermarket carb kit...

I had similar troubles with my Toro 20332 last year...grinding noises, etc. The wheels and gears all seemed ok, but when I checked the transmission, it was shot...the main bearing was bad, and the pinion gear was worn. I wound up replacing the entire transmission and it has worked great since.

I also use a carbide tipped saw blade on one of my Stihl trimmers, for cutting the heavier weeds/stems. I use the above mentioned adapters. The best way I've found to "adapt" a saw blade to the Stihl shaft is to cut a small piece of 1/2" PVC pipe on my bandsaw, about 1/8th inch long, and...

That's the way I see it. Yesterday, I went through all my other Stihl stuff,...2 chainsaws, my bigger weed eater. and small cultivator. The only one which showed any buildup was the MM55 cultivator....but torching it, and cleaning with a wire brush took care of that. My old fs45 is about 10...

I'm beginning to think the same. I've got 2 chainsaws, 2 weed eaters, and a cultivator...all Stihl. After seeing this, anytime I have an engine issue, the arrestor will be one of the first things I check....and probably toss.

I run a 50/1 ratio in ALL my Stihl tools, and I run premium unleaded 93 octane gas. I saw the arrestors on EBAY and Amazon, and the "price" isn't any big deal. I just wonder if these things are really necessary....they look like just another reason for engine troubles. I suppose that if a...

Yesterday, I tried to fire up my FS45 trimmer, and it was very hard to start...15 or 20 pulls to get it going, and then, it barely ran....giving it any throttle killed the engine, and it was spewing some black stuff out of the exhaust. I finished my trimming with my other weed whacker, then...

If you know which neighbors are doing it, collect the "droppings", and deposit them on their front porch some night. That should give them a hint.

With regard to the oil leak....I've got the same mower, and I've had a couple of instances where I had the same oil leak.....the oil filter working loose. Now, when I replace the filter, I hand tighten it, then give it an extra 1/4 turn...otherwise, the normal vibration seems to cause it to...

I have, and recognize, most of the tools in your pictures. I have a massive tool chest in my garage, and a good collection of frequently used tools in my tractor/yardwork shed. I worked in electronics, my entire career, and have maintained my own vehicles since I started driving decades ago...

I assume you are referring to the Bar Cover Nuts? I dropped one in my workshop a few years ago, and had a dickens of a time finding it. I went to EBAY and bought 4 for about $5, and haven't lost another since. Upgrading the cover, if such is available, would probably buy you a big pile of...

My Bad! I didn't know that there are now "sealed" mandrills that are already filled with grease, and no longer require a zerk. If there is just a slight "depression" at the top of the shaft, you should be good to go. I learned something new today.

Absolutely!! Without filling the mandrel with grease, it probably wouldn't last long. I grease mine 2 or 3 times every year. If your "supplier" didn't include a zerk, you should be able to remove the zerk from the old mandrel and reuse it....or go to a local hardware store and buy a new...

I've replaced a couple of mandrels in my Husq, and there are minor differences between the old and new. In your case, all you need to do is fit a grease zerk into the upper threaded shaft, and then Carefully install the "self threading" bolts, which should be included with the new mandrel, when...

I have a similar Toro mower...also 10+ years old. Last year, after sitting all Winter, it became very hard to start...10+ pulls. I didn't see any issue with the choke, and the filter and plug were good. On a hunch, I filled a gas can with Premium unleaded/no ethanol, added a couple of...

I you have a Lowe's nearby, you might be better off just getting a new mower...rather than spending most of the new mower cost to repair this one. I bought one of these this past Spring, and outside of getting used to the way the drive system works, the mower has been quite good. Give it a...

I have a big magnet in my shop, and this afternoon I tied it to a heavy string and "dragged" the area....And Found the hardware. Strange that it just came loose and fell off when I wasn't even mowing....which was probably a good thing since if the blades had been spinning, it might have done...

Found it....it apparently just fell off when I was getting ready to mow, and it was laying under some leaves on the side of my workshop. While blowing the leaves, yesterday, I found it, but no sign of the old bolt and washer. I'll keep looking in that area for the hardware, but no big thing now.

I walked all over that area, again, today, and found nothing. However, there are a half dozen dead trees nearby that I plan to take down to add to my Winter firewood supply, so hopefully I'll find this blade before mowing season starts again next year. One things for sure....if I Don't find...

Yesterday, I started doing some mowing, and noticed that my Husqvarna 48" riding mower wasn't cutting a full "swath". I pulled the deflector up, and the R/H blade was Missing. A couple of days, prior, I used the rider to cut some tall. knee high weeds at the edge of the yard, and suspect that...

Yes, My old Toro looks almost like new. But then, I only use it for mowing near the house and around some of our dozens of trees....then, I get on my Husqvarna Riding mower to do the bulk of the yard...I keep about 1.5 acres mowed. When done mowing, I always spend a little time giving...

These are good mowers. I have one that I bought over 10 years ago, and I had the first problem with it this Spring....the transmission was starting to go. I found a new transmission on EBAY for less than $50, and spent a couple of hours replacing it, and it is like new again. When I took the...

Try this...... https://www.amazon.com/HIPA-Ignition-Spark-MS360C-Chainsaw/dp/B00WPSF5B4/ref=sr_1_6?dchild=1&keywords=stihl+fs36+parts&qid=1595984205&sr=8-6

These gears look as good, or better than mine, and I'm not having any troubles...SINCE, I replaced the worn out transmission. If in doubt, you can usually pick up a kit to replace the shaft gears, springs, and keys for about $20.

I had the same issues with my Toro 20066 that I bought way back in about 2008, This April the gears started grinding and the "personal pace" started jumping in and out. The Transmission was Shot. I found a new transmission on EBAY for $43, and bought a new belt at the same time for $12. I...

I sometimes have the same trouble with my Husqvarna rider. If it doesn't "cold start" quickly, I pop the hood, and invariably the throttle cable isn't closing the choke. Earlier this year, I removed the screw holding the clamp, and put a couple of drops of ThreadLock on the screw threads, and...

This sounds like a bad Starter Solenoid....located right next to the battery....$10 part. There's also a fuse, located on/near the battery holder. https://www.discountonlineparts.com/lawnmower/?c=Ignition&b=Husqvarna&id=20999. Husq PN 582 04 28-01 ....

My old Toro 20066 (bought in 2008) rear wheels locked up this past April...during the start of the grass growing season. With little time to fool with it, I went to Lowe's and bought a Honda...with the "paddle" on the handle. It took a bit of playing with the paddle before I got used to it...

Nope, the tines Don't turn except under engine power. I just went out to my workshop a few minutes ago, to check on my tiller, after I saw your note. Mine are locked up solid when the engine is off, but once I start the engine, the tines turn nicely under engine power. If they turn when the...

We had another 2 inches of rain in the morning of the 4th of July. I got on my tractor yesterday, and took a tour of our forest, and my walking trails are all covered with knee high grass and weeds. If/when this hot wet weather ever settles down, I need to spend a day with the tractor and...

No problems here....that's why ABP is probably the number 1 blocker...it works, and I've never had any problems.....over 5 years, and over 3.8 million ads blocked.

Install ABP on your computer....no more ads....and it's free. https://adblockplus.org/

Just the opposite here in central Missouri. We are about 6 inches above normal rainfall for the year, and if I don't get the mowers out every week the yard begins to look like a hayfield.
