JD lawn and garden tech since 1998. I don't know it all, but I've seen a thing or two. Here to learn and share information to the benefit of all.
I am a retired cop consultant from Georgia, with a couple of retirement jobs, including repairing and restoring project mowers.

We have a lot of people who have more yard than they have resources to buy enough mower to maintain or to hire it done. My goal is to get them something that will last three or more seasons with routine maintenance and limited repairs.

How is your T3000 working now? Were you going to pull the transmission and clean everything up to fix your reverse issue?

It goes forward great, the pedal is hard to push down but it does reverse when pressed down. it just seems to be hard to push the pedal down.

I think there might be something dirty or binding in your linkage.
I have a McCulloch D152 Weed trimmer. Sat for a few year, cleaned carburetor. Replaced sparkplug, fuel lines and primer bulb which were all dry rotted or brittle.
The trimmer will start, run for a few seconds then stalls. Any tips???

Thanks

Fuel starvation. Clean everything. When you're sure it's all correct from tank to carb, check bowl is filling. If all good and the fault still exists first thought is tank breather and next is stator gap/dirt. Good luck, it can be infuriating!
