    Electrical Problem

    Love the Marvel reference (unobtanium)! At least I think that was from Marvel! You and @JimDeL are all over this! I didn't even have to turn the key to the start position to see the effect of the load, especially since turning the key to On only dimly lit the indicator in the first place. I...

    Electrical Problem

    Thanks Jay. I just took a voltmeter and checked from the positive lead at the starter to the negative terminal of the battery and got a solid 12.6 volts.

    Assist Lift Spring

    Assist Lift Spring

    Good morning. I have a G5200H with the 46" two-stage snowblower and I do not have the assist lift springs, pn# 70060-01359. I really don't want to pay $50 each for new ones so I'm wondering if anyone knows the specifications (length, tension, etc.) on these springs that would assist me in...
