JD must be livin’ right! No carb clean? No rotted deck? No wiring chewed? No seat destroyed? Shall wonders never cease?😂 Let this be a lesson - good karma will finally even out, folks! 👍 PS-Non-ethanol helps. 😁
Credit for cleaning it first/before you start to work on it. LOL I was beginning to think I was the only one that doesn't like to work on dirty equipment.
Lol, yeah it just makes things easier when you're not digging through inches of dirt in a small shop 😂😂 can't always have it this way but it's nice when you can👍🏻
Great question, so it's not that they are missing more that he did not buy that upgrade. Lot of these decks have the holes to mount anti scalp wheel kits but not a lot of people paid for them
AYP mowers were the last of the good box store mowers. Crazy how well everything was free moving. Gonna be a great mowers for some years to come. Thank you for sharing the great content 😎😎🇺🇸🇺🇸
Great video! At timestamp 1:34 I almost spit out what I was drinking when I saw a hamster-sized mouse under the spindle as you were blowing off the deck! Holy cow! I rewound it and it turned out it was just a big leaf with dark spots that look like eyes. I think I need some time off...
What an uplifting video! Must be gratifying to resurrect something that was not trashed to start with! Other than the missing bolt, did anything else need repair? Thanks for the video!
Looking at the mower I figured it would be at least an hour and a half video.
Good job Hester. 👍👍
This one surprised the heck outta me! But don't worry, I'll pay on the next one 😂
LoL, it never fails. 🤣👍🏼
I actually thought it was gabbage at first. Ha
Wow- What a gift of a job that was! Sounds great and looks great too! 😃👍
Thanks Scout! 👍🏻

I dodged sooo many potential bullets on this one 😅
Corn gas leaves heavy buildup of carbon in cylinder and head 😢😢😮
Garage? Did somebody say GARAGE?!!!
Can’t fool me - he’s only calling it that. Welcome to the new shop! 😂
Shhhh... it's a secret! Don't let my wife hear ya now!!! 😂😂

I didn't see any guide Wheels on the deck are they missing!

Couldn't agree more brother! 👍🏻 wish they were still pumping them out like these!
This was a fun one. Nice.
Thank you! 👍🏻
First again 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Winner winner chicken dinner!😂

😂😂😂😂😂 I just looked back I can see what you mean!
I would sand and primer the underside really good because this mower has lots of life left in it 😊😊😊, new belts and blades and it’s better than new
The guy I'm fixing it for has plans to paint and fix up this mower the rest of the way 👍🏻
What an uplifting video! Must be gratifying to resurrect something that was not trashed to start with! Other than the missing bolt, did anything else need repair? Thanks for the video!
That was it as far as repairs! He's going to mow with it for the rest of the season and see if any other problems present themselves 👍🏻
I like to do a leak down test just to see how good the rings are and how much carbon buildup 😊
Agreed that's a good idea but I've learned sometimes it's best not to go looking for problems 😂
I’ve tested it and vacuum does not remove the sludge, so I vacuum and then remove plug to finish draining the slug and flush
Yea the sludge can be difficult
