Engine is a PS-26516 with a 12 098 22-S Starter In the Kohler parts site I see one can not order just the armature bushings. Anyone happen to know where to source these? They are "oillite" type bushings so I really don't want to make the out of just brass stock. Appreciate the assistance in...

Working on a John Deere LT150, Model 150B501718, the forward transmission control pedal has about one-half the travel length as does the reverse pedal. I have taken the transmission apart, clean the sumps, magnets, and filter screen and refill it with 10w-50 synthetic oil to recommended...

Thank you for your help...my friend was able to find the fuse and solved his issue. He and I appreciate your assistance!

Thank you very much! Hopefully he can trace out the wiring and find this fuse. What seems to be simple by some can be beyond the paygrade of others:). Thanks again!!

Mower a 2014 LTX1050, 13WQ93AP009 Owner says after one of the headlights fell out and the wiring shorted out, burnt on the exhaust it will not crank..".it won't even click click". He and his mower is in another city too far to get to easily. He's relatively mechanical savy. What are some...

You are right...the knowledge base in this forum are awesome!!

And so it is indeed!

Right, I got that....saves me measuring time.

Wow, thanks a bunch!!

Thanks! I'm a shade tree who fixes up mowers that are "donated" to give to people with a need but little or no money.

Thanks!

Working on an old John Deere with a PS-41618 Kohler engine. I would appreciate anyone responding with valve clearance gap specs. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your advice! I'm a shop of low to no volume?. I'll "trace n verify". Thanks again for responding!

Hey thanks for the info!

Working on a LT150(150B501718). Would appreciate a wiring diagram or guidance to find one. Thanks in advance!

Gee, thanks for the crank info! The Honda pressure pump engine is rated at 3400 RPM...should be a good match for power.

I have a B&S model 125K02-0477-E1, s/n 04122858. I thinking about replacing it with a Honda engine from a power washer. What is the rated RPM of the B&S engine? I can locate that data within the B&S website.

Ok, thanks! I really appreciate your help!!

Re sealant, point well taken...where do I look for fuel in the carb so I know I have the air leak stopped?

I think I understand. Does applying gasket sealer help?

I'm working on a Sears Model 917.376551 walk behind. Its been sitting up for a long time...carb full of corrasion so I gambled on a knock off Chinese carb.(I know what's coming and deserve it) I have never worked on this type carb...with a primer bulb. where is the fuel injected...

Thanks!!

Thanks!

Thanks.....sort of looks like it from a brief time I looked at the 105. Does the 105 have a transmission /or drive pulley issue that was addressed in a JD recall? I appreciate your reply and help.

I have 0 John Deere experience so I like some input: I have two of the subject models. The 150 needs a hood and has a 38" "Edge" deck. The 106 has a 42" deck. Questions: 1. Will the 105 hood fit the 150? 2. Will the 105's 42" deck fit the 150? 3. I read where the 105 has a troublesome...

Wanted to let folks see an old Dixon zero turn mower I just finished restoring. It's a "mechanical and needs to be loved occasionally" tool from 1992. If anyone needs some parts for a similar model 304 let me know. Fun project!!

Thanks to all for your replies... haven't started the engine yet. I just rebuilt it and have begun the mower restoration. I was thinking about installing a low amperage cooling fan to keep the cones and drums from getting hot. On later model Dixon's there was a fan on the top of the cone...

Working on a B&S Model 254707-0120-01. Is there a way to determine the DC output of the B&S alternator, part number 592828/ superseded Part number 391529?

Thanks!

Further......I have used a product since my youth call "OSPHO" for surface prep in rusty metals. It is basically phosphoric acid. It is a little much to breath in and can sting a bit on exposed skin but it does an awesome job. I just chip and wire brush off all the loose rust, apply with a...

Thanks! I always forget to "Google it"...too much old school I guess. The model is 304. It was built in 1992. I have some hard to get NOS parts should anyone need them.

Anybody know what these "flaps" do...Dixon deck, blade side

Thanks!!

True that!!

Well at least I now know that I have not lost my mind!! Thanks so much for the help. Its a $6.XX screw from some folks....pays to be more careful. I appreciate your help!!

I'm restoring an old Dixon (304) zero turn with a B&S model 254707-0120-01 engine. I am short one of the mag hold down screws, part #691061. I've tried trying to use dies, SAE and metric, to identify the thread type. I am assuming these are hardware type screws. Anyone out there that can...

I have never seen a suggestion in a mower OEM operation manual about what the engine speed should be to engage the blade clutch. Isn't it beneficial to suggest to people to slow the engine speed to half throttle poor to pulling out the blade clutch switch or stopping the blades? Wouldn't...

Thanks!

I am working on a Zero Turn Model 5900709. According to my parts reference the OEM filter part number is 5101026X1. I checked with Fram for their cross over part number. They advised they have no filter that matches Snappers requirement. Anyone out there with some advice and help? Thanks...

Thanks....sounds like a good plan!! I appreciate the feedback.

That's generally what I have done. I grew up with either Permatex No.1 or No. 2. For valve cover gaskets I usually just used a silicone sealant on the valve cover side...let it sit overnight so the gasket dries to the sealant. Thanks for the reply.

Re: Kohler valve covers...been there!

When reassembling and engine or components after a rebuild what are the opinions about using sealants with the new gaskets or o-rings? An example like between the plastic intake manifold and the cylinder head with a o-ring type sealing arrangement? Should I use a non harding type sealant in...

Thanks for the advice!

I too am hesitating trying one again. I may have to manup and put a kit in the one I am looking at. It is very gunked up and eaten up with two years of water inside it. Thanks for your feedback.

The one I am looking at now has had water in it for two years....pretty corroded.

Yep, I have had the same results too. Thanks for the feedback.

Anyone out there have any good luck with aftermarket carbs for a B&S 44P777-0124G1? The OEM may be worth the bucks...just curious about everyones experience?

Thanks!!!
