Reed & head gaskets replaced still filled hose with oil. Leak down test shows all good. Didnt smoke at all with hose disconnected but hose fills up in under 10 min time.
Owner bought a brand new Kabota sub tractor last week, what he wanted from the start he says. He'll scrap this poc cub. He mowes enough he needed a lot more mower so he did right. Got a fel, fork lift, backhoe and trench digger attachment too...lol Such a nice tractor he'll never miss this little poc. Might run over it but surely wont ever miss it...lol.
