    DK2 OPC566E Exhaust

    Most likely, the engine is made in Japan or China. And it uses metric hardware. So if the 1/4 inch bolt is to small, then it is not a metric #6 as it is slightly smaller than the 1/4 bolt, so that leaves us with the #7 metric bolt.

    1988 John Deere Hydro 175 - Engine stalls when I engage the blades

    Very unlikely that a poor connection to the clutch coil will cause the engine to stop when engaging the clutch. The problem could be electric or just poor carb adjustment. If your engine is running lean, the sudden load will cause it die when the governor suddenly opens the throttle to...

    1988 John Deere Hydro 175 - Engine stalls when I engage the blades

    Is this what your mower deck looks like ? If so, then I would start by looking at the support that holds the idler tenson pully and the pulley bearings. I'm guessing that they are worn and allowing the pully not to be aligned with the belt path. Also make sure that the tension spring is...
