purchased my zt-xl 52" about 5-6 years ago. 23hp Kawasaki engine on it. take care all

Fixed the issue, ended up being an error I caused. I had to unbolt the tensioner pulley arm and route the belt that way.

I forgot to add, I noticed a lot of left and right sway from the deck during mowing. Wanted advice from other owners or techs if I installed a part on backwards or maybe If I should just buy gravely belts instead, due to maybe the off brand belt being not to spec, stretches under heavy use, etc...

Morning, I bought an aftermarket deck belt from amazon and got maybe 3-4 months of moderate use out of it before it shredded. When I installed this one I opted to take the deck from under my mower instead of installing with the deck in place. Would anyone take a look at my pictures and maybe...

Just helped me, thanks and all the best

check that video out, watch if from start to finish

What would you recommend to clean that lip up with?

Old trick I learned from an elder... average business card is fine to gap the magneto with. Also worth noting, double check the flywheel has it's key weigh and is aligned properly to ensure ignition timing. As for the carb sounds like you might have it squared away but here is some food for...

Ignition timing. Sheared flywheel key weigh.

Thanks for getting the gears in my brain turning. I will double check my carb work. If that doesn't fix her up I will look inside.

I said something to myself about the welch plug too, lack of concentration on my part. That was my second mower I worked on that day and truthfully I just dropped the carb and parts in the ultrasonic cleaner and put my faith in its cleaning potential. Will double check that main jet with bread...

Engine model - 128m02-0952-f1 p/n 498260 is the rebuild kit I purchased for the original carb p/n 799866 The mower was found yard selling, everything present on mower except blade. Has spark and I am questionable about the compression, I did the shade tree mechanic trick of taking off the spark...

Thank you for tip! It was near the head of the engine, stamped onto a shroud. With those numbers, I looked up the part I needed and as suspected, much cheaper than buying the re branded john deere part.

That's really awesome. Do you mow at night or anything to that effect?

Thank you for the tip, I saw a thin plate but no numbers engraved into it like most other engines I've dealt with. This is my first time working with JD and I am trying to get around buying parts marked up by them if I don't have too. I saw the BS engine and assumed I could just find its...

In condensed form, I am working on this push mower and I need some help figuring out what B/S engine is on it. I am after the air cleaner housing that has the primer bulb on it (John Deere MIA11450 ). Can anyone tell me what engine i have by the information I have provided? Thanks in advance

Looks like North La got hit some type of bad, was watching my morning news yesterday around 5am and Monroe Louisiana made it on the air.

Thank you

Hello and thank you for asking your question. Many riding mowers now and even years and years ago have hour meters that allow you to track the time spent running and using the piece of equipment. Also for tracking and performing PMCS. Now sometimes you can get inaccurate hour readings if the...

I use a 52" Gravely ZT XL ZTR just now reaching 100 hrs after 5 years

Afternoon everyone, I was hoping to pick the brains of the forum about my mower blades. I have a 52" ZT XL and I try to sharpen my blades a couple times a season. Was curious if when re-attaching blades to deck after sharpening, should the blades be uniformed? All the same way across the...

Hello all! I bought my gravely zt xl 52" with 0 hrs on. Well 5 years later it is now reaching 100! No pics yet sorry

Thanks a lot

I am working with this model engine, "31c707 0603 B2" I no longer have the original carb, I replaced with a carb I purchased online. When I put my information in on the parts site, it brings up two carbs. Could someone help me understand which one I need to select and maybe even teach me how...

Hey man thanks for the reply I think i will try a couple cans of brake cleaner

I recently removed my b/s intek engine off of my troy bilt pony to check my camshaft and decompression on it. I would like to know what can I use to clean the inside of the engine with. As some dirt, grime, and debris managed to find its way inside the sump and on the inside of the cover.
