Yep. In the fall I dump the remaining the weed whacker and leaf blower gas into the 5 gal tank of our mower and then fill it up. It's started every spring and runs just fine. I doubt it really hurts or helps anything. Two stroke oil is designed to burn ashlessly so spark plug fowling...

If your transfluid is down check the power steering lines and the rest of the system. That's the only component that carries trasfluid up by the engine.

Ah yeah that'll do it. Had the water pump seize on an 8n my Dad and I were working with. It had been rattling for years. We finally got it started and it was making it's usual racket and then it suddenly got quiet. We both turned around and white smoke from the belt started rising out of...

Wow my sympathies on those prices, didn't realize how good we've got it over here. CZs are good guns! Had a chance to fire a CZ-75B a few years back and fell in love. I keep planning on getting one but I barely shoot the guns I've got and other things keep taking precedent.

Well the spraying fluid is normal. That's almost certainly just the return line from the regulator on the pump. Thumping I wouldn't think of as normal. With 3 hours on it call your dealer and get them to send a mechanic out to drive it and see what he thinks.

Jeese they wanted 450 Euros for that multicolor monstrosity? I can pick up a new in box 1911 for less than that and it will even look like a gun! Who would do that to a perfectly good 1911? I like that log cannon! Looks like an old swivel gun they used for ship to ship action back in days of...

Yes Firefox. Don't think I ever tried it with another browser.

Works fine for me right now Russel. I've noticed sometimes it is really slow. It will search for the tractors just fine but once the new window pops up it takes over a minute to load anything. I can recall it doing it both on my home internet and at school so the problem is either on their...

I looked at the Murphy's website and they offer a pressure gauge in 1/8 NPT. They must offer a 1/8" BSPT. Call and ask them. If not Summit Racing sells an adapter. Where is the coolant temp sender port and what size does it appear to be? I managed to make an adapter for mine to make it...

Consensus seems to be change the fluid and work from there and I agree. Symptoms seem to fit foaming oil. He may have put in the wrong stuff or just has never changed it. Also check the radiator and oil cooler up front for blockage, make sure they've got good air flow.

Bulldog that sounds to me like gas boiling in the carburetor. We have a Cub Cadet with the Kohler Magnum flat twin. The brilliant engineers at Cub Cadet modified the cooling fan so it pulls air up from the bottom and blows it out the front. Needless to say it get clogged with grass like...

If the battery was hooked up in reverse how did you cut grass? If the starter functioned at all it would've spun backwards and your engine will start in the wrong direction. All the forward gears would've been reverse gears or for a hydrostatic the pedal would've been backwards, and your...

If you've got fuel at the pump fittings tighten the nuts on the pump and loosen\remove the injector nuts, open the throttle completely and crank. If you don't have a compression release remove the glow plugs for easier cranking. If that doesn't do it remove the lines from the pump and see if...

You want an oil temp shut down? You sure you don't want an oil pressure shut down?

The cam plugs are metal. Press fit or solder, I'm not sure. Getting to them is a royal pain, get an accurate gauge in the port and see what your pressure actually is. The thread is 1/8 BSPT. Summit racing sells an adapter if you just want to use a gauge you've got handy or McMaster has...

Welcome! See if the oil is down in the steering box. The box sits right over the clutch and if it's cracked that could be the source of the oil. If you need to change the seal I remove it in post 14 of this thread. It's a standard spring loaded rubber seal that runs on a boss at the end of...

I went and looked at mine again and I don't think a simple shim wouldn't work like I was picturing. On mine the flange at the bottom of the steering column has a circular boss which fits fairly tightly into a hole on the steering box. That boss provides a lot of the strength to support the...

Just experienced something similar with the aftermarket reverse gear I bought for my machine. They either made the fork groove on my gear to the wrong dimensions or have very poor quality control. Unfortunately all the options I can think of have been mentioned. It's been too long since I...

If it is gear noise and it's that loud you may be past the point where different oil is going to make an appreciable dent in it's remaining service life. Any 80W-90 gear oil should work fine in the front axle. I'd work on figuring out what component(s) is dying and replacing it hopefully...

Here's the page on the rockshaft housing (as they call it) from my manual.
