It helps to also provide us with the Product ID label number, so we know which series this unit is. Grasshopper and other companies have a lot of early and late production models with their equipment.
Keep this in mind for any future issues you need help with.
If there is any problem on any equipment you need help with, please include the chassis info like this. If it involves the engine, it will have a separate plate or label on it with needed information as well. The manufacturer of the machine does not build their engines.
