    Finally A Deal

    I have lots of Ryobi battery powered tools. Maybe 10 or more. I like them a lot. I would consider them "homeowner grade" as opposed to contractor grade. I recommend them.

    Loud whistling sound when firing up new MX4900

    I certainly hear it and find it annoying. I don't know if it represents an issue that needs resolving. I always wear hearing protection when operating my tractor and other manly combustion powered devices and could possibly learn to live with it. Good luck. Always wear hearing protection.

    B2301 Model Recommendations

    You can pull up the relevant data on the Kubota website. In my opinion the difference between the two is not big enough to warrant an exchange unless it were done with zero or very little economic impact .Good luck.

    Finding a water leak in a buried line

    I would try to run a new smaller line thru the old leaking one. I would take a piece of foam or cork connected to some fishing line and flush that thru.

    Advertisment inundation

    I can barely navigate this site due to the recent huge increase in advertisements popping all over the screen. If this continues I will delete my account contents and leave. I am not expecting any sympathy. This is nuts.
