Hey guys, I have a d403 grgi that's slowly pumping water into the oil. I just rebuilt it this season with new o-rings and blueflex diaphragms. I cant see any signs of real damage to the pump and it's only 4 seasons old. Any ideas?

Project DIXIE CHOPPER
I’m going to try and restore my Dixie chopper to an extent. I will be converting it from a 2003 X2503 to a 2005 XF2700. What ever information that you may have on what may have changed in 2005 regarding 50” decks or machine wise will be very helpful. Thank you for reading and I will keep everyone updated on the project!

Walk Behind Mower Cranks But Won’t Start
Bradley 48” WB, bought new last May. Battery was dead today when I went to start it for the first time since parking it end of last year.
Replaced battery and now it cranks but won’t start. Figured I’ll throw this post up here while I futz with it in case I don’t figure it out.
All the push mowers (Honda) fire right up after winter.

Toro Timesaver POS - Blade/Brake Cable
So I've had the thing two years and I'm getting it ready today for the season and the crappy plastic bracket used on the "blade/brake" cable breaks. Cost me another $30 to replace. I only use it twice a week for small yards. Walmart mowers last better than this thing. Anybody else have the same problem?

Seafood this time of year?
So I winterize my weed eater in the fall but I have a few 12 month clients that last through the winter. I only use my equipment a few times a month and put stabil in the gas but by spring those pieces of equipment are harder to start and don't run as well. Thoughts on using seafoam in the spring to freshen them up? They all get new filters, plugs etc. in the winter.

Researching possible engine swap on a 2007 John Deere JS20 21" mower
I am researching a possible engine swap on a 2007 John Deere JS20 mower that has set for a couple of years. The mower currently has a 190cc Briggs and Stratton Quantum engine on it and I would like to put a Kohler CV200 or CV224 on it. Would this be feasible? Any input would be appreciated. Thanks.

stripped spark plug threads
My mother in laws riding lawn mower "shot" the spark plug out last night. When I went over to take a look at it I did notice that the threads of the plug were messed up. She did mention that a repair shop a few years ago had mentioned to her and my now deceased father in law, that the threads are messed up in the cylinder head. It's a scotts brand riding mower with if my memory serves me well, a 12.5hp briggs and stratton single cylinder.

Motor oil in the Hydraulic system?
I recently purchased a used John Deere hydro walk behind model: CWBM 17HP HYDRO
my local Deere parts guy says he’s never heard of it before and was surprised at the model number but it does come up in the system.
my question concerns the hydro fluid, the manual calls for any of the following:
JD-Plus 50 15-w40
SAE 15-w40
JD-Plus 50 0-w40 synthetic
Or API service classification SG or higher
I picked up 2 gallons of the JD-plus 50 15-w40 but also have 3 gallons of low viscosity HY-GARD...

1st pump rebuild by noob.
Hello, I have a few questions I am hoping I can get help with.
I have a PG-3KCC-NY1C. It's from my 08 Bad Boy Pup mower. It was leaking, I believe out of the lower seal. I dis-assembled everything and it all looks pretty good. I got a rebuild kit from my local dealer and got it home and was cleaning and preparing to re-assemble, when I noticed the top end of the rebuild kit was different. In the kit, the charge pump is smaller. The kit's has 4 teeth on the inner piece and 5 on the outer...

Skag Tiger Cub....wet grass sticking to underside of deck....
Duh....right.
I've been mowing for over 50 yrs and we all know wet grass clumps and sticks to a mower deck, BUT even moisture laden grass/weeds (like is coming up right now) seems to stick terribly to the underside of my deck.
I have an early model T/C with the old 'Advantage' Deck. It is appropriately named, but they fail to tell you the 'advantage' goes to the grass.
Question: Has anyone found anything that can be applied to the deck surface to help alleviate this problem? Does the...

Stihl HT75 extending tube spinning
Hi guys
My HT75 extending tube is rotating and not locking in position (i.e. not keeping the bar vertical). When I extended it to full length it come out of the outer tube for the first time ever. What keeps the extending tube in the correct alignment? One for the shop?
Thanks
Chris

Anyway the new filter keeps it running longer but the level still goes down low as you run it over time.... anyone know what coudl be causing not enough fuel flow to be getting to the...

Stihl hedge trimmer slipping
I have a 3 year old hedge trimmer, the long one with built in blade, not the kombi. Anyway it has started slipping, sounds like gears are worn out inside. I had maintenance done a year ago but used it quite a lot in the last year. Is this something I can easily fix by taking apart the head? Or is it done for? Thanks

Chapin 24 volt backpack sprayer
Good afternoon all!
I have recently purchased a 'new' Chapin 24 volt backpack sprayer. The unit looks like it may have been used but repackaged. Not sure on this. Filled it with weed killer and went out to spray. Sprayer worked fine with the exception of the pump not shutting off when I stop spraying and it leaks out of the bottom portion of the pump. I have taken it apart and reassembled and tried adjusting the screw on the bottom with no luck. Because I did not purchase it from Chapin...

Brand of filters!
Hi thought I’d ask the experts!
I want tho do a spring tune up on a used Exmark I just purchased. I’ve been looking for new filters, fuel filters, hydraulic filters ect. And I found a Stens brand filter to be less expensive than the Exmark brand. Any advise is greatly appreciated.
Thank you
