    On 4th season about 65 hrs before sharping was long over due. Use angle grinder. These take a 30mm socket BTW to remove.

    50 hour service

    I had a couple drips on one of the oil drain plugs , my last oil change I replaced the brass washer thing. It was clearly the wrong size from factory. I change the engine oil once a year regardless of hrs. Past 3 have been 50 to 60 hrs.

    Stingy on fuel

    I have always been confused on Horse Power vs tractor horse power ! If a park my B2601 that burns .61 gallons per hr diesel and go with horses. Do I need to buy/feed water 26 horses ? Winter time I don't really need them, October through April still have to care for them ?

    Fuel prices

    I made my mess using a 5 gallon sure can. I use the steering wheel to hold it. What happened was I though can was empty and pre-maturely pulled hose out fuel was still flowing.
