    Bought a new ZD1611 ZTR... overheated.

    My Zero turn is quite old, it’s also quite loud, I only cut with hearing protection, not sure I’d hear an alarm if it had one. Are these newer machines quiet enough that you don’t wear hearing protection, or is the alarm if it works very loud?

    Tractors and wood! Show your pics

    I made the mistake of planting two Bradfords at the entrance to my properties driveway. Looked great for many years, then one split in half, looked so bad I removed both. I replaced them with Aristocrat pears, similar look less susceptible to the splits.

    What is leaking?

    Pin hole or crack in the welded area of the pipe, or incorrect/pinched O ring?

    Yes Sir, a redneck one 😬 but it works pretty well.

    Neighbor offered a red oak that came down during a storm, he had it cut into 12’-14’ logs. Three totes split so far, and I don’t think I’ve even split 1/3 of what I brought home. He said there’s another one on the ground in another location if I want it. I’m going to need more totes!

    I Thought I Could Smell a Mouse

    Wow Gordon, that’s enough to piss you off I’m sure. I had to remove the plastic engine dress up cover on our Honda Pilot. Mice seen to be invited into its space. Now they tunnel under the hood insulation, guess I need to remove it next. Vehicle stays parked inside my pole barn/garage.

    What did you buy this week?

    Bought this today. Chased down a p0171 code on the wife’s 05 Accord, intake boot was torn causing a vacuum leak and a lean condition. Cost about $50 and it was actually in stock locally. Great car, rarely gives us any problems.

    RK 24 bogging under full throttle

    Check the basics, air filter, fuel filter/s, tank screen, fuel condition, lift pump if it has one.

    Branson 3510 (2004) lost hydraulics (three point and front end loader)

    Mine was the same, the way the shaft failed it created a lip and misalignment of the shaft/gear locking things together. In my case the ps pump did come off. The hydro was a battle and I did some extra damage getting it off.
