Hi! I've got a Ryobi RM480e that won't move and I see that you offered to send the repair manual for this beast. Would you be willing to e-mail it to me? ericbrandall@gmail.com -- Thank you for your help!

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has ever had issues with the 3 Bag grass catcher on a Scag Tiger Cat where the blower unit is running down the battery or has put stress on and blown the PTO Clutch ? Thanks for your help.

Hi Mad Mackie,
The word on the street is you have the manual for a Hustler 251K. Any idea how I could get my eyes on one?
Or, maybe you know how to unlock the wheels when the thing isn't running. Apparently most 0-turns have some kind of way to free up the wheels from the hydraulics but for the life of me I can't find it on this one. Thanks in advance!

Freshly acquired Craftsman with non-running Kohler engine. New carb. Has spark. Cranks but doesn't start. Any ideas?

Can Black permatex be used in place of the sump gasket on a briggs 19hp or should I go back with a gasket?

Flywheel key was broken. Timing off. Replaced the key and started on 3rd pull!! 15 cent fix.

I love working on small engines and trucks and cars and RV repairs as well I enjoy camping, scuba diving, Flying, photograph, and I enjoy buying vehicles and fixing them up and selling them later for a bit of a profit I was an Apprentice mechanic for several years and still enjoy doing it as a hobby I love challenges and learning things along the way as well.

Can you send me the pictures of the B&S V-Twin engine with that funky thermostatically controlled choke and/or throttle control. It has a vane and some other stuff. The pics I tried to see are too small and I am trying to put one of these together. You can text at 339-788-1418 or email at rminnehan@verizon.net Thanks. Roy

Nice to see a fellow believer on ANY forum. It’s difficult to see the wheat through the chaff sometimes. Really enjoyed your banter with some of these clowns. ?
God bless brother!

This is the best mower ever. I bought it right after I got married 13 years ago and if it could cook, it would be my second wife. I've managed to keep it running and I'm not a mechanic. I'm going to need a blade belt soon so if anyone has a part number, please post it. Thanks.
