Mower doesn’t seem as powerful

Hey guys,
I have a 2003 Bobcat Walk behind. FH500V Kawasaki. I bought it about 6 years ago and I have no clue how many hours it has. I only put about 70 hours a year on it.

It seems like it doesn’t have as much power anymore. It doesn’t cut tall grass as good as it once did and it isn’t as fast as it used to be. I do regular maintenance on it (oil changes, filters and such).

Do you think the mower is just getting old and losing power? I did a compression test and and it read 70 psi on...

Kohler CV740-0011 Governor questions

I just recently rebuilt a CV740-0011 on my Gravely - 1,200 hours and it was gasket time. Couple exhaust valve leaks fixed, head flattened, etc. Runs great now. I'm wrestling a bit with the governor system - I'm a car guy so familiarity low on governors. I have the factory manual, which is helpful. Oddly I have a new governor spring (silver, which I assume Kohler calls "clear") but looking up the spring for my motor, it should be black. I've ordered a black spring.

I'm just confused by the...

Kaw FX730 not starting - fuel delivery problem

The Kawasaki fx730 on my Hustler Fastrack (130 hrs) won't start. It cranks but no start.

I sprayed starter fluid into the air cleaner (filter removed) and it started for a bit. So I know it's a fuel delivery problem. I replaced the fuel filter last year (because of the same issue) so doubt that's the problem. The fuel filter is full of gas and so is the tank. I removed the output from the fuel pump and cranked the engine. No gas coming out. However, I'm under the impression that fuel...

I need some help. I've looked at wiring diagrams till my eyes bleed. Borrowed the neighbors mower to cut my grass before I left for vacation. I hate doing that when I've got the biggest mower in the neighborhood (3 acre lots).

Whenever I engage my hydro levers, engine dies. Parking brake on or off, seat switch jumpered or not--even with me in the seat and parking break off.

I've confirmed parking brake switch does what it should. No start unless the brake is set if somebody is not in...

Ferris z1 srs 36" zt-3400 help

Anyone done their own hydro fluild/filter change on the above? The manual shows instructions with the hydro unit out so that doesn't really help with real world issues. I got to the filters and guards off. Then there's linkage in the way preventing the filters from actually coming off. Then there's the problem of reaching the vent plug on top of the hydro's. Any help from someone that has done the service on this unit will be HUGELY appreciated!

Toro Z Master rubbing EZ Vac belt on discharge chute

I bought this mower last season so I could have an extra mower available. I’ve never been able to use the vac system on it because the belt keeps rubbing against one of the ears that stick up off the deck that the discharge chute would normally attach to. Am I routing the belt wrong?? Am I supposed to cut that little ear off the deck? Below is a couple pictures. Any idea what I’m doing wrong?

Any cross reference for Kohler ecv860 O2 sensor?

Have a 2018 cheetah with a Kohler 29 efi and I'm pretty sure the oxygen sensor is bad. It spits and sputtering with black smoke out the exhaust.

Unplug O2 sensor and it runs perfect. It had a Delphi OSP+ 28163974 on it. Any Napa or auto store chain that has a replacement? I called Napa and they said no matchup. But reading old threads on lawnsite members were saying there is.

Anyone know?

Hey guys, so I needed to upgrade my old 1998ish 36'' eaglestar mower. So I shopped around a little and found a decent 2014 bobcat classic 933007G with 75 hours for sale so I went and picked it up and got some questions about the pto. When I push the pto button off the blades do not shut off unless I either turn the throttle down or I let go of the safety handles. This is my first bobcat and my first newer style mower so I don't know if this is normal operation or not. My gut is telling me...

I know the sticks are supposed to be locked when parking brake is on, i have no idea what I did. The parking brake works when engaged. With the machine off and the hydros bypassed i can turn the wheel with the...
