Hahahahahahahah man you got me laughin hard

With these days and times why would you want to show somebody how a hotwire something I will not watch your shows anymore.

Toro zero turn. Only blows white smoke when cutting high grass on a hill at an angle turning. Thoughts?

Some say not to use a scotch brite, have you not had issues using? If not, I’m gonna go ahead and leave mine, did it last night. Also doing a valve job, how should I clean inside the valve galleys? Mine are gummed up bad

Hello Mr Mike, im a 25 year old i just purchased my own house along with my Zero turn mower, i think the guy got one over on me. i Purchased a "2014 Exmark LazerZ 72" with a Kohler engine model number on the engine is (ECV749) and the model number on the mower its self is (lzs749ekc72rd) PLEASE i really need some help. im in VERY much of a bind im 5.5k into a zero turns and its not running. It will start up and run fine, but shes blowing WHITE smoke like a coal train. I know its burning oil and the oil is low. looking for ANY help you are willing to give. im in major need of assistance i own 2.8 acres of land (in city limits) so i need to get it mowed

I have a 2518 same transmission. 900 hours! Still running.

Pressure washer same way I think. GCV 160

If you can fill it up while on the mower, then why can't you just pump the old oil out, and fill it back up a couple times?, your way seems like a lot of unnecessary work if ya ask me.

I am so in. I am old enough to have ridden in cars that didn’t have seat belts

There IS a vent on top of the trans……right by where you removed the plug you used to drain / fill the trans.

Where is that located on the mower?

Had a cub cadet for over 20 years, other then routine maintenance I didnt have any problems. Just bought a new cub cadet and love it! It’s cheaper than John Deere’s too

Excellent. Mower with the Intek 13hp OHV. Died and would not start with spark. As you said, I removed valve cover, found TDC and OMG the play was immense. I will set it to spec but with that amount of play are there other issues likely? Thanks

Thank you, My exact problem. Going to give this a try tonight. Makes sense to me.

what an asshole

Think ill foam my front tires on my rider nothing to lose right...lol ..it'll fix my slow leaks anyway. Back tires I'll definitely slime I get a leak . Great video!

Wonder if they'll nail me this year in the field's hopefully not it doesn't feel that good

I usually don't care about the splits and will throw a plastic bag on it to sit on most Times i don't id more want it to have springs that actually do work the older outdated mowers i have their seats are really comfortable one is a old sears with the onan engine and the other is a old John deere L110 think ots a 1968 model anyhow its faded seat is comfortable as old as it is good springs in those old ones. My zero turns gray seat arm rest has a terrible sharp piece on its corner scuffed my left elbow and it hurt pretty good i keep the left arm rest up all times then it last year kept dying out in the womans field did on the side of her garage and had to right at a bee nest in the ground something kept burning my ankles and waist i thought maybe my cigarette fire fell off and was burning until i seen it was bee's pouring out next to my right back tire last year i just kept getting nailed by those bee's and on back in her field on the hill then a other time near a washed out spot when the deck arm pin fell out as i was mowing the field's then get home check the cats in the shed and red wasps kept nailing the back of my neck so my neck was hot for awhile so i said alright you mother fuckers and load them with hornet spray they got me 4 times 3 in the neck and 1 in the back there was a big nest inside the door

They let people that don't even no what certain things are called and he's watching online videos what kind of professional mechanic is he I'm not one but dam I'm better off alone he even says you don't want to rely on these videos lmao this has to be a joke just to be funny even he keeps laughing wth is up here

Helo! Magyarországról írok. Ugyan ilyen motorblokk van a gèpemen. Kipufogó szelep és a szívó szelep hézagot megtudnád nekem adni, mert a videoban nem látni, hogy mennyire állítod. Ilettve a meghúzási nyomatékot is szeretném tudni. Köszönöm!

Still have mine, 20 years old, changed 1 spindle and a drive belt. Your very uneducated

Cool thanks brother at times we have to bypass stuff.. love the break starter 😂 I'm not doing that yet lol😊

This was 2 years ago and you mention that this Pressure Washer was a POS and on its last leg. now, i am looking to buy one and wonder if you recommend Powerhorse or stay away?

On my L110 i made the gas gravity fed but i am needing to raise it up a hair i welded a bracket to the back of mine to hold the gas tank up but it does need to be up just a hair more my buddy i bought the L110 from i rode it back to his house and he said i fucked it all up by welding on the john deere body and the gas tank out in the open and painted the john deere red he liked the paint job though i took it all apart to paint it

Those plastic hoods are junk except for the L110 its all plastic but haven't broke yet or cracked anywhere it probably will though like the others are i epoxied the Lt155 hood best i could do its still holding together now was missing a little piece of plastic don't know where it went but its glued up but were that hood attaches to the mower frame those pieces of plastic keeps breaking so now it needs another replacement and im not gonna get another because it'll just break again because its weak plastic

I do have a zero turn larger than that one a old Toro z master z222

Most mower blades these days have the label "Grass-side down" on them to make them more idiot-proof. I use my DeWalt 20V lithium impact wrench to remove and reinstall the blade bolts, works like a champ. Torques them down with more than enough force. On high-lift blades that aren't labeled, the curve of the blade should always curve up toward the deck, not toward the grass, as that curvature is what creates the suction force underneath the mower deck.

Thankfully there is a John Deere and Cub Cadet dealership in my town. I would never buy from a big box store

One suggestion-use a ratchet

Super Glue lol. Just slide each part over the bolts against the air cleaner housing and attach the entire assembly. Took like 1 minute. Next time you remove the carb the surface of the plastic is going to leak from super glue removal and take time to resurface it all. Also the original carb is way better. Just unscrew the jet and clean it and put it back in.

I really enjoyed this video. I'm about to break one down myself. And hopefully it's not destroyed so can rebuild it and Rock on! Looks like it's a doable job. Thanks man.

New Cub Cadet tractors are junk. I have a 2003 Cub Cadet 1525. It runs and looks like new still

Greetings from your newest subscriber. I may have to resort to an impact driver, growing old sucks. Thanks for the tips Mike, I’m enjoying your content. Cheers from North Texas

Good job. I fixed the compression release on my mower but thought I'd get away with keeping the old seal. First time out, oil spraying everywhere. Will have to take it all apart again. Should have listened to my old Dad's advice - if a job's worth doing.......

Hey smoke another one and do the inside tomorrow

I’ve been going down a rabbit hole lately and want out. I’ve been looking at a toro 54 inch max cutter havoc with the “my ride”. I’m ok with the 10 gauge fab deck, and v-twin Kawasaki engine. But what I’m concerned about because I get in the forums and waste my life reading others opinions (ironically I’m asking yours), is that is it really a deal breaker getting the 2200 transmission over the 2800? People say serviceable is better, if I want the 60 inch version of the toro in the havoc with my ride, it is a grand more. Is it worth it to spend more to have something serviceable when it appears you’ve manage to service the unserviceable and done so 10 years after ownership. The 54 inch is 4399 right now on sale and the 60 inch isn’t on sale and is coming in at 5399. I appreciate your time.

Too bad the Cub Cadet name got ruined. When they were invented and manufactured by International Harvester in the early '60's they couldn't be beat. I have two Cub Cadet models 125 and a 104 which were all three made in 1968. I've had them since 1971 and 1972 and I have used the first 125 every year since. Just recently I took it apart, cleaned and painted everything and the only part replaced was the neutral safety switch. When IH went out of business the Cub Cadets were eventually made by MTD and that was the beginning of the end. Seems like MTD and American Yard Products make most of the riding mowers nowadays, paint them different colors, put different names on them and they are all made cheap. My 125 was $1350 without the mower deck in 1968 which in those days was about half the price of a new car but 56 years later it's still in use.

Leveling a hang bracket means nothing unless the deck is level as it sits. Making things square to the main deck can be done without the need for an attempt of using a level.

It's a punch not an awl.....an awl has a pointed end to pierce fabric or to use aa a scratch awl to mark steel, etc

Thanks. That was helpful.

Please advise on the proper transaxle seals for the 1554. Thanks

I'm not buying my lawn mower from a big box store. That part of the dream was a nightmare! You need to compare a homeowner lawnmower vs a dealer lawn tractor. Boxstore has no service department vs a dealership with a parts and a service department. Stamped vs welded deck. And on and on.

Mower Mike thanks so much Dave

The only thing I'm worried about is if replacing with a metal pushrod is right. There must be a reason why they used an aluminum one.

My craftsman B&S 21hp smokes a lot of blue smoke when warms up. Oil level is fine. Is it the rings? Is it worth fixing? Previous owner said it made noise while the oil was low but i hear no noise. Ill try a leak down test if i can.

Oh yours is 2 cylinder i been working on my single cylinder well it doesn't matter they both use push rods so is it best if i use 2 of the same rods instead of the aluminium rod but now that i think more of it the aluminum will bend alot easier with it surrounded by heat from the engine running because its soft metal i gotta take the head off again to put a new gasket on so while thats off I'll some new rods in Its gonna need new rods anyhow when i got the engine the piston was rusted in place each valve was rusted in place and the flywheel wouldn't spin but it all moves now and runs good but the head gaskets shot and one rod was rusted bad im gonna go ahead and replace those

This will weaken the leather greatly and will reduce the lifespan of your boots dramatically. It works, but that is because you are literally degrading and destroying the leather. Break in is hard, but its necessary. If you have crazy money to burn on boots, then go ahead and throw your money. As for me and my $600 Nicks Boots, a natural break-in is the only way.

This was excellent thank you

would you recommend AMSoil breakin or Royal purple breakin,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,should i change the filter as well when changing the breakin to standard oil?
