What is the model number and year manufacture of your Craftsman? Richard

Is this a new mower or used ?

Actually you don't need a new cable. If the cable is long enough, you can just clip off the terminal back about 1/4" from the melted area and put on a new connector. Unless you you have the proper crimping tools, I suggest that you solder the new terminal on to the cable. Richard

Those tubeless tires are a real problem with a lot of zero turns. When I was repairing mowers as a side job at my home, I had a customer who was coming into my shop about once a week. He was doing custom mowing. I finally convinced him to just put on sold tires. Problem solved. Richard

OK this post was not thought out very well. Tony will have to find a way to remove the nut holding the fan/pully on first. Still will need an impact tool. Then, if the pully is stuck, see below. On post # 8 al3 Said: When disassembling noticed the input pulley had provision to attach a puller...

Can you identify what engine you have in that tractor. There should be a model number on the engine someplace. Richard

Never put a cold plug into a hot engine. I don't know the science behind this, but it has always worked for me. Richard

Sir, sir, I have a question: How much are you getting paid for this commercial ?

Welcome to TBN. Don't know if you noticed, but the previous post is over 5 years old. You may not get a response from the original poster. Richard

Update on my Hart Electric rider mower. For the first time, I had to clean out the bottom of the deck. Really jammed full. While I had the front of the mower raised up to clean the deck, I decided that maybe some moving parts should be oiled. The owners manual does not have any required lube...

A battery’s condition can be monitored by checking the electrolyte’s specific gravity with an inexpensive D-I-Y battery hydrometer to determine the percentage of sulphuric acid it contains. A fully charged cell at 80 degrees F would show a specific gravity of 1.265. If all six cells are fully...

Check for a loose flywheel. Richard

They both look the same to me. From the photos on the jungle place, they both, the 11s and the 12s, have the exhaust exiting on the same side.
