Yeah, I have a garage full of mowers lol. No room for the cars there... Just picked up a 2-stroke Toro with great compression, but I have to re-seal the crankcase as it has oil all over it and the power lags due to the exhaust stroke lagging. Goofy videos aren't a bad thing for subscribers of that sort of thing (I think its great, and doesn't require any thinking on my part lol).
I have an L118 with a steering gear issue. I fixed it once(see the video). Its broken again. Needs some re engineering to really fix it. I was fixin to do that but the original steering parts fell off a trailer somewhere between NH and Maine.
I guess that’s a common problem with John Deere lawn tractors, A friend of mine has a similar issue with his John Deere mower as well, I think he wants to get rid of it so maybe I’ll get the chance to also do a video on it soon!
@@kylesjunkandprojects216 The issue is the gear spacing between the cog gear on the steering wheel shaft and the teeth on the steering sector gear plate. The cog gear needs to be moved a bit closer for a tighter fit. If you move the gear plate the front tires will toe out. The tie rods are a fixed length.
That's a nice quipment there bud
Im amazed at how those mowers stick the corners at that speed.
Perfect weight distribution for high speed cornering!
@@kylesjunkandprojects216 I thought maybe at high speed the blades had a gyroscopic stabilizing effect.
Yah Im sure that's part of it

more mowing videos what kind of engine u putting on the snapper after it blows up????
I’ve got a 19hp Briggs opposed twin sitting around that I’d like to put on it assuming the crankshaft size is the same.
@@kylesjunkandprojects216 do that
