Hi all, Sorry for the delay in providing a photograph of the fan installation. Medical issues became a focus for me all summer. We just put the tractor away last weekend so I snapped a photo of the "backwards fan". I did ~ 10 hours of digging and a few days of bush-hogging since the fan...

i hope this saves a lot of people grief. The reversed fan is not perfect but the trade off is worth it. Lots of air flows!

A colleague says that he writes software because he is lazy and wants to do less work. The thought was contagious so here is the lazy (easy) way to replace the notorious broken HST fan on a BX25. There are many documented ways to do this: Remove deck and drive shaft, cut holes and remove...

Loopy.... thanks for the memories!

Hi Marine-MP. Likewise. Good to hear from you too! It has been a crazy last 10 months but getting back on track now. I only have the grey one. The other photos are for reference to help others. Perhaps the RC48 is yours before the resto? It was a nice one for comparison so I re-posted it.

I fixed my G5200 overheating with a few grenades thrown at it at once so I do not know for sure which one did the trick. Your 2400 is larger and hopefully does not have a small rad like the 5200 so comparing may not be reasonable. One low-cost grenade you could try is to drain the coolant and...

No problem. It is still in winter storage. I'll be getting it out in a few weeks and will take some photos of it.

Kept the Evaporust in for ~ 6 weeks, drained, flushed twice with distilled water then put 50/50 coolant in for the upcoming winter. One last 4 hour mow and the temp never passed 1/2 way on the gauge. Outside temp was cool at 16C. Lets see how it does in the spring. The del sol radiator is...

Junk Yards sell batteries. Find one with a newer date sticker and bring a battery tester.

Hmmm crosses with Honda S2000 and many others.... I have S2000 filters in the garage... yipee

Fram website validates part number:

"What are your thoughts on dealing with friends and family who think this way, or even the general public that we interact with? " You must appreciate that all have had different experiences to form their ideas and judgement on matters. I believe that if someone is "not smart enough to know...

Off topic but if the oil pickup & strainer tube in the sump comes loose from the block then no oil will be pulled up out of the pan. I always loctite the bolts on that part when rebuilding an engine.
