I just bush hogged and ZTR'd 5 acres around the house, glad I ain't gotta push mow all dat... bout to try the carb choke swap over. I miss the good ole daze but love a zero turn, it makes grass cutting more fun, it's like a shop or TV you always wish u got a bigger one.

I was able to move the choke over, it literally cranks one pull every time, no joke and will shut off proper with the throttle lever. I bought this 37 years ago when we first got married for $400 it's been a good one,
thanks guys !

Thankfully I never had to use a reel mower but in the Florida Keys we didn't have "real" lawns, mostly just rocks and weeds. Biggest problem that I had was rocks shooting out and hitting your ankles or breaking something of value.

95% of the time , when they don`t want to start  or run like poo-poo it is the main feed jet that needs cleaning .
Very easy on this style carb , just remove the bottom bolt / main jet and clean the 3 holes out .

Nice wire tool Joe. Where'd you get it?
