    Whats wrong with the mower I have.? Yes, the seat has been replaced.
    I can mow a foot ball sized lawn in 45 minutes. Less if you allow me to tear up the grass in the turns.

    You need to do an OA, ECM dump and dyno run on it. If you don’t you’ll regret it.

    :D

    Nah, put a brand new motor in it two years ago. Supposedly the same engine size? Except last engine must not have developed the claimed 23 hp. This new one has a bigger blower on it for better cooling. The oil cooler is beefier and larger than the old one (some thing says Briggs and Stratton realized their first make was defficient).

    The old engine died when it spit the cam shaft out the back of the motor

    Well it doesn’t look very aerodynamic. You do know fuel is going to be your biggest expense? Speed isn’t all it’s cracked up to be just ask a prime contractor. We’ll get you set up with contractor services to guide you through how to run your new business the most efficient way.

    Oh and the machine is much more aerodynamic with the very well rounded operator on it. lol. A pic of it with the blower and hose removed. $5 less on the job no bagging IMG_20180712.jpg

    I thought I would tell you a joke of sorts. The seat on that mower? From the Woods Equipment they will let me buy it for $985. From the John Deere dealer whom supposedly gives me a discount it is $658. From Northern Tool catalog it is $385. Yet on Amazon it is only $125. Went with Amazon and no regrets yet.
