Hopefully one of you gurus can help me ID m engine and then I’ll save the info in a safe place! I don’t know what year Lazer Z or what HP Kohler engine I have the ID tag has completely faded. I need to order the deck belt and two idler pulleys. In my pics a tool is laying one one pulley and the other is the main tensioner assembly that I need. I also need a hood source for these parts with good prices. Thanks!

Photograph the label from some different angles
A digital camera is better than a phone but a phone will do if it is sitting on something so there is no shake .
Drop those images into any photo editing softwear and play wth the levels &/or contrast.
Human eyes do not see white on white but the camera does .
I find inverting the image ( called make negative or make slide on some apps ) so the whites become black & the blacks become white also helps.
DO NOT USE A FLASH .
Asa tech that services mostly very old gear, having sun bleached tags is the norm for me

I have a pretty good camera and will try it with that and the other tricks you mentioned. Thanks for your help!
