Just throwing this question out there, the Series I & II engines in the 782's - what is the difference between them besides the fact they have a I & a II on them and the rods are different - can the parts be interchanged? The carb and stuff the same? Just looking at different parts off the parts tractor with the series I and the mobile one that has a series II.
Wife seen the blower & 782 today. YIKES! It went better than I thought, but the air was BLUE for a minute or two. Thankfully the daughter & her boyfriend were there, they kinda laughed at her and it helped cool things down. I am sure, like many other things, the dust hasn't settled yet over this one, it will come back and bite my ass yet! Oh well, the joys of having a nagging wife!
It was around zero to 2 degrees Celcius here today, lots of snow melting, not enough to get the 8 inches or so off the garage or house roof, but its starting. I don't really like the idea of having to rake it off, that's too much like work!
