This one was about 2700 psi. Higher pressure would have helped for sure.

The stem going into the caliper? I have never seen that happen, as it's not tight and does not require a lot of pressure to open by design unless it was over tightened before? Is the bleeder valve rusted in any way?

You're welcome!

Check to see if the choke flap is open when it's cold, that should give you a good indication if changing it will help. I also noticed that when mine was warm, it was extremely hard to start. Let me know if you end up changing it out and if it fixes it.

@@ThatDadMike When warm first pull. I know this from refueling from front to back yard. Will check the flap. Due to its age, would think it should be replaced.

I bet you are right. I think my mower was about 7-8 years old when it failed.

@@ThatDadMike Ran all the gas out. Installing tomorrow. The OEM part including tax was $13.25

Awesome, fingers crossed this fixes it for you. Keep me posted!

Outstanding! Thanks for letting me know!

A small amount of leak while on its side should be ok. If it leaks in the upright position it's probably time to change the grease. The grease that is used is thick like Vaseline - if it leaked a bit it likely separated and many say to run the mixer to mix it back together. Make sure it still sounds normal with no unusual sounds and that the motor does not feel hotter than you are used to. If you decide to open the mixer up and change the oil, here is a video that shows you how to do it on a tilt head KitchenAid mixer (it's a messy job but not all that hard to do :) ) ruclips.net/video/ND1b9P2iubg/видео.htmlfeature=shared

Good tip, I just checked mine and added the other half of the seal from the pack directly on top of the other one to get to 1/2" deep. It seals even better and now requires a slight push down when latching as it presses more firmly against the raised lip on the base.

@@ThatDadMike How'd that turn out? I kind of figure that'd be a mess and prone to slipping around / coming off. I've been trying and trying to find some 1/2" high by 3/8-7/16 wide without any luck. I can find 7/16 x 1/2" wide all over the place but, 1/2" would be just a little too wide for the lid cavity. . . I may give your solution a try. Thanks, Update: I did go ahead and double it, since I already had the seal. Seems like it'll work ok. Time will tell. I did find some 0.43" x 0.39"(H x W), about 11mm x 9mm, that I believe would be a better size. It would still make a good seal but not put as much pressure against the top. Anyway, we'll see. Sure better than it was.

What I really liked about doubling it is it really seems to stick well on top of the other. We cleaned out our freezer today to defrost it and loaded up the cooler and I think it really worked out well. I really appreciate your suggestion - great teamwork!

@@harveyfloyd6045 I got the same "Walmart Igloo"cooler in the 52 quart size I went on a two week trip and had to add about 7 to 10 pounds of ice in it daily. I considered it a major fail. I noticed that when tipping it to drain it, water leaked from the lid because there's no real seal. I went to Home Depot and Ace Hardware and all only saw that 5/16 by 1/4 inch rubber weatherstripping. Seemed way too small to me because the channel is 1/2 by 1/2 inch and I have been on a search for something closer to that with no luck in the stores. You said you found something close in your comment. Do you have a link or remember where you saw it. Been doing a lot of searching on Amazon etc. Thanks for the help…

Not with ice yet, however I did use a few small blue ice freezer blocks and it did excellent on a 10 hour trip. Definitely worth the effort I think, especially for the $10 cost of the seal

It should still do pretty good but you may need to use a scrub brush a few times

See if you can completely loosen the set screw underneath and then wiggle it out from the side and reposition it.

Excellent, thanks for letting me know!

Good luck! it's relatively straight forward and once you are done the repair will look great! Sanding off the rust was the most difficult part for me.

Thank you for taking the time to comment - glad the video helped!

Glad the video helped! My Home Depot only had a few, but at $83 for just the blades I figured there had to be a better way. The cub blades just did not last - the new ones are working great. Great idea on the battery!

Excellent. No issues at all.

Thank you!

Glad the video helped, thanks for taking the time to comment!

Glad you found the video! The spindles are working great, in fact I just mowed tonight. Let me know how the install goes if you end up changing yours out or if I can help in any way!

Thank you so much! Take a look in the video description for a few helpful links on the parts. Here is the arm I picked up: amzn.to/3XErGiD Here is a great parts lookup site. Once you find the part number, check to see if Amazon has it: www.hondapowersportsparts.com

Thank you so much for taking the time to comment! I really appreciate it!

Great to hear! Check this site to see if they have your mixer listed and the part number for the set screw: www.ereplacementparts.com/screw-set-p-622311.html You might be able to find one that works in this kit as well and return it if it does not have what you need: amzn.to/3YjUJIe

Did those blades have the star pattern?

@@ThatDadMike no, s shaped pattern. Rotary 17224. I agree the star pattern is in most cases less expensive and much easier to find replacement blades.

Sorry about that it was the first video I had ever made for the channel 🙂

Apologies, there was nothing to really see because it just slid straight in. The hook below the microwave was not visible to be filmed

Great to hear - glad the video helped!

Thanks for taking the time to comment! Can you share a link for that bolt if you have one so I can take a look?

Thank you - I appreciate you taking the time to comment!

It looks like it probably will! Double check the models listed on the page here: amzn.to/4cOGf7c The good thing is the Amazon listing states free returns in the event you need it. If it were me, I would give it a shot and then double check the dimensions on the new spindle with the one from your mower before you install. Let me know how it works out if you order them!

Thanks for taking the time to comment! Glad the video helped, I think you will really like them and no more proprietary blades!

Which ones you order and from where? I need some for my zt1 54"

These look like the ones you need. Double check the part number of your spindles and mower in the description to be sure. amzn.to/3VZCipy

About 3/4 of the 32 oz bottle. Your results may vary, it just depends on how much you pull through the brake lines

@@ThatDadMike thanks. just got a 32oz bottle

@Sean-Aviation excellent, you should be all set!

Whoa. Yep, run! :)

Thank you - I am glad the video helped!

See if you can find a website that sells the s shaped OEM replacement for your mower with the dimensions. Once you have the dimensions, you should be able to find the star pattern spindle that will replace it on the 8ten site (link in my video description). That's the process that I used and the 8ten spindles and blades have worked excellent. Partstree.com says that the spindle on your mower is an 619-04183B which is now a 719-07293-M. Double check the part number on your spindle and the dimensions as the cross reference may not work since you are changing from the s to the star. Here is one that appears to be used on a lot of 54" mowers - check and see if the dimensions are the same as what you have installed before ordering as it may not work: amzn.to/3XMMcxy

@@ThatDadMike you sir are a hero! After finding out the new spindle assembly housing part number all the sudden there’s a million aftermarket spindle assemblies that fit my deck! My lawn says thank you 🫡

Excellent news! When you get the new spindles, double check all of the dimensions and pulley size before you install them so you can return if needed - I had a terrible time trying to cross reference with the MTD/Cub Cadet part number on mine and ended up just ordering what I thought looked like a match based on dimensions and I got lucky. Let me know how they work once you get them all changed out!

I was not a fan of the factory rubber mats either. I think these are a great compromise. Keep an eye on the price on Amazon, they may run a Prime Day sale. Amazon will also allow you to submit that price to them and then they adjust it to match in most cases.

Great question! I found that it did not provide any additional benefit than the hose so I just decided to use the hose by itself.

I agree, they are working great! The representative I spoke with before I ordered was also very helpful.

It is certainly unfortunate, I do wish they would go back to the way they used to be.

Murray is back in business. Saw a couple new Murray's in home Depot this year. Probably still owned by mtd though, nearly all box store mowers are made by mtd even John Deere box store mowers were up to a couple years ago.

That's certainly possible. They seemed to take the grease well (one overflowed slightly where the shaft exits the spindle) and are cutting beautifully.

Yes so I take them apart and remove the inside covers 😊😊😊 Fast and easy to do ❤

Actually there's a video proving you can just have to pump enough grease in instead of stopping at 4 pumps or so.

Hello, I am not a mechanic but the school of thought differs on which one to do first. For my Honda, I did the driver, passenger, rear passenger and then rear driver. I don't think it matters too much, provided that you get as much of the old fluid out as you can.

Excellent, glad the video helped!

I was surprised as well, frustrated to be honest. The blades also only lasted 30 hours - I have never had a set last that short of time. With a new set over $70, I had to figure out something else. To get started, look at your spindle and get the part number off of it. Email that to 8ten and see if they have a star version replacement. If not, get the part number that they give you and then you can begin to look at dimensions to find a star that fits. It's a bit of work but once you are done, you will really like it. I have cut my lawn 3 times since installing and could not be happier. Here is one that appears to be for your model. Double check it to be sure and make sure to grease the zerk fittings before you mow if you end up buying them: amzn.to/3KBqFjj

Often the gap is .030 but check your exact model number on the web to be sure.

@@ThatDadMike Thank you.

Thank you so much for taking the time to comment - I am glad the video helped!!!!!

Thank you!

Thank you! I end up using about 3/4 of a 32 ounce bottle each time.

I think it would be. As a matter of fact, it seems like most cars are setup this way which helps a lot.

Great to hear! Thanks for taking the time to comment!
