The dealership mentioned they should have drained the gas that was in there for a year haha. I always fill the tank up with fresh gas and used Stabil for winter storage. Never had a problem. So it’s possible it wasent my gas. Either way, glad to have the mower back.

it runs fine on regular gas. Just had bad gas for whatever reason. I will see if it happens again, it’s very costly to go an hour out of my way for non ethanol.

Well she is back home. Mowed the lawn, twice and had zero issues. So it really was just bad gas. I mean it's a relief. Glad that's all what it was and nothing bad. My back lawn was over 12" tall and it mowed through like nothing. My old lawn mower would have stalled.

Well guys, I got good news. The lawn mower is on its way back. They couldn't find anything wrong. It was simply bad gas. They did ran seafoam through it just in case. But they drained the fuel and put different gas in it and it ran perfectly fine and stopped bogging down. It's weird. Same...

Still no word on my Zero turn. That's not a good sign. They had it for a week and promised a quick turn around. I assume they are waiting for parts or having trouble figuring out what's wrong. Meanwhile, my lawn will need to be hayed now lol.

My older mower had a Kawasaki and that thing ran great. Never had an engine problem so I wanted to stick with Kawasaki but wanted more power and fuel efficiency. It is impressive how much fuel this EFI model saves. Going from 22hp to 26hp doesn't sound like a lot but I can tell the difference...

It definitely isn't that haha. I wish it was that simple! The check engine light doesn't even come on which is weird but doesn't mean anything. It could be throwing codes, I'm sure they will scan it.

Well bad news. The new Zero turn is already going back to the dealership. Something is wrong with the electronics already. I can't even mow the lawn. I think one of the ignitions coils is bad. 6 hours and haven't even made my first payment! What a weird problem to experience so new. The first...

Just finished my 3rd mow with the new Z452ikw zero turn. Man this thing is awesome. Finally feel more comfortable using it the machine, its way different than the old zero turn I had. It turns so much better and man is this thing FAST. My old zero turn had a pivoting front axle which was nice...

that sounds like a good time.

Echo also makes a 56V cordless trimmer too haha. I think having both options are good for different purposes.

Thanks for the recommendations on the ear muffs. It's crazy how different this Kubota mower sounds compared to my older one. This one is so much more low pitch and it's causing sound occlusion. It feels like someone put a subwoofer right next to my head lol. I mean I don't really need to...

Looks like I need to buy new hearing protection to be used with my new Kubota Z452 zero turn. I used the same 3M Peltor 98 ear muffs I been using for years but for whatever reason with this particular machine, they seem to amplify the bass so obnoxiously that it sounds quieter without them on! I...

I went to a logging expo today to check out all the cool machines and to get some free stuff. When I got back, I saw something orange in the driveway! The Z452i was delivered! I didn't waste any time, I got on it and played around with it for a bit. Man this thing is a beast, built well...

I don't think they were compatible anyways. That seat is for the F3710 and it was $1200 haha. I think this is the ONLY solution for maximum comfort. 🤣
