Good morning!!!!

From the age of 14-16 ( late sixties) I worked at an AMOCO station, except for a couple of short gas wars the price stayed the same, 29.9 regular and 35.9 for unleaded premium. That was a penny higher on premium than Texaco and ESSO and most brands. Sunoco 250 and 260 were a penny at each step higher.
We had a lot of customers that came for the “white gas”, (unleaded premium).
We called gas regular and high test.

Good morning to all! Low of 30, high of 55 today. We had rain / snow in the forecast for Saturday, but now it is gone! RNG sent it too far north! Now there is just 4 days of 45-55 mph winds! Yesterday we had 4 or 5 total brown outs with blowing dirt! ..... NOT happy....

Drew, I have been through Espanola.... and kept going. It is the heroin capital of New Mexico. I had an opportunity to become the Deputy Chief of the EMS division..... I turned it down quite abruptly! I do not like the "low riders"... an interesting group of customizers... I usually go the other direction... 6" lift and 35's

Don, not sure which model Craftsman your mom has, but the first place that I would look is the seat safety switch. There are no clutch plates, rather it has just a belt tensioner as the clutch. There are contact switches on the seat, brake, blade engagement, and clutch pedal. Unfortunately, they are ALL tied together, making it difficult to find which one is messed up.

Oops... hit post before I was done...

Don, my Craftsman had a problem with the seat safety switch, just wouldn't make contact. I removed it from the seat, put a small block of wood and compressed the switch.... then duct taped it tight...

It's been that way for 4-5 years now... never had another problem with it.

Another thing to check would be if the transmission is free... you may be able to reach under and turn the pulley on the tranny (Not when running). Is it a hydro or gear tranny?

Ken, sorry to here you are still in the doghouse.... must have to do with a moon cycle or something.... I too was on the carpet in the dog house for the last few days.... I'm pretty sure I am allowed back in the house... for now....

David, that could be just a steering arm adjustment or perhaps something was bent.
Unless your property is seriously bumpy
doesn't look like your mower is holding up.
