If that does not work replace the grease zerk. They are cheap and easy to remove and replace. And yes, it takes grease, not oil. Also, there is another grease zerk on the other end of the drive shaft. Don't forget to grease that one too. In fact, make sue that all zerks are lubed. One pump of...

BotaDriver, Thank you for that link. If that 3 point attachment adapter will fit my tractor I will end up buying one of those. I emailed the company asking them if that will work on my tractor. Hopefull they will answer quickly. Thanks again for the link.

Are you on the rag or someting?

I retired once. None of my friends were able to retire though and so I spent a lot of time waiting for them to be able to take vacations to go hunting, camping, boating... I ended up going back to work and now I am too busy to go camping, hunting, boating... Next time I retire it will be when my...

While on the West Coast we have much colder than normal weather. Snow levels 1000 feet lower than normal and a very wet Autum. Leaves turning color 3 weeks before normal and black ice already. Yeah, I guess Global Warming is real. NOT!

A very interesting article.

I came to this site because I am new to the tractor world. I do not have a lot to contribute to the discussions yet because almost everyone on this site knows worlds more about tractors than I do. I stay on this site because I really want to learn from those more experienced than I am. Sometimes...

Cryptobrian, I just noticed that you hail from Maple Valley. Is that in Washington? I sent you a PM.

That can looking thing is installed as a part of the blade assembly. Look under your mower and you will see how it is assembled. Did you hit a big rock or something? The fact that the bolt sheared may mean that it was over-tightened to begin with. Anyway, something compromised the metal...

I hate these new cans too. As others have mentioned they actually cause spills because of the awkward way you have to pull the little lever to get the spout to open up and the ridiculous short spout that cannot pour into a car or truck. I see gas cans on the side of the road at least once a...

I would try to replicate the problem going down the same slope. Do not put any more fuel in the tank. If you can successfully replicate the problem going down the same slope, then add fuel to the tak and try again. If the mower stays running after adding fuel, then it sounds like it could be a...

So I was mowing my lawn this weekend and when I raised the mower deck at the end of the row to turn around (while the bleades were spinning) I heard a racket that sounded like I was hitting rocks. The first pass or two I actually thought that some rocks or gravel got caught in the mower...

I have the Landpride BB1548 for my BX1860. It seems to be right sized for my tractor. I originally was going to buy the BB1554 but got my mind changed my the dealer. I am not sorry that I went with the BB1548.

I used to hunt around Fairfield, PA back in the early 1980's and I witnessed exactly what you describe.

I have not checked where the fuel filter(s) are on my BX1860 but I am not having any problems with it yet. I have almost 90 hours on mine and it still gets almost 3400 RPMs at full throttle when cutting through 6 inch high grass. So, it would appear that I do not have any fuel flow issues from...

I have only owned my property since March so I really do not know what to expect to see each year but there are 8 antlerless deer that stay on my property each night. I have not seen a buck among them yet but they have to be somewhere close. My wife regularly feeds them apples from our back...

I knew that someone who knows would chime in. Thanks Eric.

I won't even pretend to know anything about grading a road but I think that I would attampt to crown the road. It seems to me that you need to get some more crushed rock or gravel too. To keep on top of the wash outs I think that you would need to make sure that you fill any pot holes as soon...

skeets, check out this website. It lists pretty much all of the known stations where your can buy ethanol-free gasoline. I don't see any listed for Washington, PA but I am sure that you can find one near enough to you so that you can buy it are store some. http://pure-gas.org/index.jsp?stateprov=PA

Look, I know that several on this forum don't like Obama. I certainly don't. However, just a little over 1/2 of the people in this country voted for him. Think of this in another way, ALL of the idiots in this country voted for him. Thought of in anotehr way, the chances are that if you did not...
