New plugs, drained gas, took the carb off and sprayed it out with Gumout, new fuel filter. Had a prob with the mikuni pulse fuel pump. Took it off and beat on it a few times New filters, changed oil, newer batt from other mower Looks like hell, needs blades sharpened. Ok to take around the catfish pond and our campsite on the back of the property. And yes; Caribou Sherbet, we have 2 bush hog decks and use them for heavier applications For hideous consideration 2001 Craftsman 22hp

Wife had a friend in NY that stated he couldn't find a used mower for less than $3500. Sounds like money could be made. Last edited by devnull; 07/27/21.

PITA to dump the oil every time. That engine lift in my pic above is only used for mowers. Cheap Horror freight unit. Folds up out of the way when not needed. Its down in the pic with mower wheels on the legs. If I had to work on them a lot I'd get a table lift. My bud uses his fork lift. I have had to drain fuel and oil if its going to be a pain sitting on the floor for the job. Last edited by blindshooter; 07/27/21.

Gets to braying in the mornings when we deer hunt the big oaks along the fenceline here at the home place. Lol, i think he (the cow man) believes I took a shot at him last year when he kicked up a yote putting around on his wheeler. I busted that song dog as she zipped down the saddle I have a stand in. Guess he think he can siphon deer off of our place, he only has about 10 acres that is wooded. Usually those donkeys are really good watch dogs.

A few weeks ago I used a jack on my mower to get under the deck, popped off the clip holding the deck, which in turn messed up the tension holding the belt and that turned into a pain in the ass to fix. have you paid your dues, can you moan the blues, can you bend them guitar strings

Needs the carb worked on though, have to run it with the choke half pulled. Change the oil in it every other year, a fuel filter every five years or so, clean the air filter whenever I think of it it (not often). Kohler made a good motor back then.
