    New poster here. I've enjoyed reading this forum over the years, but never made any posts, but I'm in need of some advice.

    gas powered riding mower battery

    Hello, My Craftsman T150 46 inch riding mower uses a U1R battery. I'm guessing the only thing that battery does is crank the mower. I'm guessing the stator keeps the battery charged. I think I read these batteries are good for about 1000 cranks. We have 3 1/2 acres. The mower seat has switch...

    How do riding mower transmissions work?

    I'm sure there are more than one answer. I know for a fact that some have gearboxes with multiple speeds and reverse. And zero-turns are probably using either hydrostatic or a gas-electric direct drive type system. But is there another option? I made a post in a go kart forum about how it would...

    JD 108 riding mower - turning the PTO on shuts the engine off

    After getting this unit running, I go to test the mower part of the tractor and when I engage the PTO switch (pull out and flip up), the mower goes to shut down. It's as if the key is being turned off. I do have the wiring diagram. And side note, see that the seat connector has a piece of wire...
