So the GF has been bugging for a tractor that she can use - aka a hydro...
How about a 123 I ask... Ugh! Too ugly, no... How about a 149? Ugh! That's ugly too! I want something good looking!
Translation - My GF has NO taste at all and she wants a certain green tractor...
Then along came a zero turn for $100... I got a "fine" when I asked to bring it home. A friend called and his neighbor blew it up. As it turns out I actually have a motor I can use with a little parts swapping. I have a gasket and seal kit coming and with a little luck the hydro's aren't toast and she'll have something she can use. Or I can sell it and look for something a little rounder. Maybe I can find a newer GT cub....
This is a first. The idler siezed and melted through the pully...
After a little bit of the best cleaning product around - elbow grease...
Yeah, I think I found the problem...
