a friend alerted me to a craftsman dgs6500 at the curb just down the street from me. I zipped over there and nabbed it. the engine fan was removed as well as the cover but it has a 2022 battery and it started right up. The blades engaged too! so I put it with my other freebie lawn tractors and will look at it in-depth later. the one thing that it's doing that's disconcerting is that it's blowing oil from somewhere. my left leg got a dose of 20/50. maybe from the filler neck. maybe it's overfull, I don't know. need to look at it. IT HAS A CRUISE CONTROL ! LOL... anyone know anything about these lawn tractors?

Well, the engine starts and runs but has some vicious blow-by so the rings are shot. no matter, the deck has new blades and the tires and rims are excellent. going to part it out... i can't get the image to load properly. it truncates the width ! serial #. 917. 287500.
