It worked! Thanks to all. This site is great. I cleaned the battery cable terminals. Got a new battery. Drained the fuel. Put in a new filter. Cleaned the filter bowl (which was full of crud), and pre-filled it about 1/2 full. Bled the air out of the system with that screw knob. Now it fires in...

I bought a new battery. Going out to clean all of the ends now. Here is a question regarding the fuel and possible water. What are the steps to get rid of the old? I could disconnect the line from the tank to the filter to drain the old fuel, but would I lose "prime"? I obviously replace the...

thanks for the great input. I'll look into it this weekend. Might as well thanks. i'll check tonight or this weekend. I've had it 3-4 years, with the same battery, so that's an easy place to start. i have jumpers made out of welding cable. would you jump from a running car battery and attach to...

I've owned a B6200 for about 3 years. Usually I warm the glow plugs for 10-15 secs, and it fires up in about 5 secs (I live in NC). It never fails. We went overseas for over a month and I inadvertently left the tractor uncovered. When I came back I worried if I'd face starting problems. Sure...

a belated "thank you" to everyone. I used the Berryman stuff recommended above, and they are holding air! grateful for you all. thanks.

Ok. I’ll try it. Stay tuned. And thank you

Stop leak is a brand?

Just went to the tire guy. There is a sign in his window that says he’s off all next week for the 4th. Bad timing. Discount tire suggests tubes. Might be best option? Any downsides?

Just did that. Definitely fine bubbles along the bead. Both tires.

I have a b6200hst. Rear tires (29x12.00-15) worked fine, but were dry rotted everywhere. Finally I found a used Goodyear turf tires 29x12.50-15 to replace them. they looked newish. Had them mounted. A day or two later both were flat. Filled them back to 10psi. the rims look nice from the...

My rear rims have a sticker on them: 29x12.0-15. Currently that is the size tire on those rims. They are dry rotted. I'm assuming it is OK to put a 29x12.5-15 tire on that rim to replace the harder-to-find 29x12.0-15. Is that right? thank you!

anyone know if the gck60-bx can be adpated to an b6200 with a 48" deck? I don't mind working on it a bit, but obviously if something won't work I don't want to risk buying the grass catcher. Anyone know? thank you! rick

good to know. thanks.

thanks. I tried to activate mid PTO, rear PTO, reverse, forward, and drive a bit. will see how it goes. right now the level is the top of the flat portion of the dip stick, which is above the line, but I don't know if that's way high. if it doesn't drop down, I'll drain some more.

a report on the transmission change, with a question: I got it done. The good news: fluid was clean, as were the 2 strainers. But here is something baffling: By the book, it takes 14.3 qts = a bit over 3 1/2 gallons. Only perhaps 2 3/4 gallons came out. Then, when I was refilling, I put in a 2.5...

@85Hokie thanks! do they have a workshop manual for the deck RC48-62H? If so, could you send the link? Thanks!

eureka! I hit the gold mine. Thank you!!

first time doing this. I've searched all over trying to find a thorough write up, but haven't found one. So a couple of questions before I try it tomorrow: 1. Are there 3 places to drain the fluid: under the mid PTO, and each side of the rear axles? Those have a dab of orange paint on them...

I should have clarified this: I have a mid mount 48" mower deck, but nothing to collect with.

My wife informed me that she'd like all of the grass and leaves picked up so she can use it in her compost pile. Any ideas on grass/leaf pick up for an older b6200 that won't break the bank.? I don't mind trying to build something but I figure this group has some ideas. thank you.
