I would GUESS it'll fail when you have that big ol' load in your bucket, hit a rock or pothole and then tip the tractor in such a way as to change the color of your shorts or worse, test the structural integrity of your ROPS. Let's hope it doesn't come to that.

I don't know about you guys, but I am anxious to know if this beast will start with a charged battery ! You both are to be commended for your patience. Well done fellas. (fingers crossed)

The splines only align on that end one way. You have to look very very closely at it. There is a gap in one of them. It's hard to see unless you are looking for it. You were lucky to just spin it and get it to match. That won't usually work (for me anyways) as the splines are very...

9volts way too low...sharp eye #40fan!

Glad he got it running OK (hopefully_!!!) Decks are not exactly super"easy" to take off and on, but read the mower manual or search the Messicks Tractor videos on youtube. There's at least 1 (maybe 2) there that show how to take off and put on the decks. There are other videos too. It all...

QH05 here for my bx2380. I think a qh10 would've fit also. (but I wanted the smallest/cheapest/lightest one possible,. We must've bought 2 of the last. Those models are not being made anymore. You'll enjoy it.

Like I said, I really doubt bumping that 3 point lift arm into the ground has anything to do with the rough running. (if it had indeed been the PTO, which we've thankfully established it's NOT) then that's a different story. Onto more troubleshooting.

Yes, I am fairly tech savvy, but my wife took the pic, has no email on her phone and texting the picture to me works 99% of the time, but not on this occasional. (I think the picture file is corrupt.) Another day, I'll do a similar photo. Thanks though ;-)

Oh boy....I think we have a failure to communicate. This is the PTO (power take off). It's inside the red circle.(under the plastic cap) It's used to power things via a short 2'-ish driveshaft like rear mowers, tillers, and the like. You say he backed up on the 3 point arm (because it...

3 point hitch arm (not TPO like your initial post said.) TPO is not anything....PTO is, but it's not germain to this issue.

I reread your initial post. I think I see now..... I think it's a 3 point hitch arm that he backed up on, as something came off and let it go down. You can say "3 point hitch" or "3PH" but TPO is so close to PTO it had me confused. I am willing to bet the non-running and bending/jamming the...

I understand....I have the exact same machine. If you are referring to the 3-POINT HITCH *(the thing out back that goes up and down, that's one thing. If you are referring to the PTO (power take off) the driveshaft kinda thingy that runs your tiller,(and also your mid--mount mower) that's...

It's not a new tractor. 32 yrs ago it sold for about $10k It's underpowered and either 2WD or 4WD (I can't be 100% sure) It won't move. What else is potentially wrong with it? The seller is lucky to have found you, or you him. (he has to know that) I would give someone MAYBE $500 for that...

TPO? Do you mean the 3 point Hitch? (or PTO - ie: power take off) 3-PH The 2 arms + 1 cylinder on the back of the tractor that would typically be used to attach your tiller ( and other implements) to? Not sure how (if that's what you mean) would affect the tractors ability to run. Sorry I...

I tried to drive some (sharpened) 6' long rebar "posts" into my ground the other day with the bucket on the BX and was met with very limited success. You'd have to see my ground to believe it. Almost zero "soil", no clay and pretty much pure rock with gravel and a little sand mixed in for good...

Dude Grammar and punctuation are your friends !

You need to START YOUR OWN THREAD if you want help with your issues. I've seen a couple posts by you in others people threads (known as hijacking) click "post thread", pick an appropriate category and give the title a descriptive name, go into the body of the message and tell us what the issue...

Was only the starter itself replaced? (why?) I don't know if your model has a solenoid closeby or mounted on the starter itself and it was replaced as well. Generally speaking it sounds like a voltage drop issue. (dirty <electrical> contacts, <mechanical> connections opening up slightly due to...

Start a new *(your own) thread sir. This question is buried in amongst another thread.

Indeed. I've seen that video too, but it's not the cutting edge being too low that is catching the dirt in the driveway, it's the "inside edge" of the skids, when you turn, that are pulling the dirt way up....like 3-4" tall or so (varies with the type of snow that's down and how loose your dirt...
