Ok now I am getting more angry with this .....just cut the grass today....the mower started to spit and sputter, almost shutting off, and now is lobing at idle......sounds like a monster cam in it....and I lost faith in the repair place that I purchased this thing at....considering they really didn't fix it....I also see that kawasaki has a recall on this engine.....
That's what the guy I talked to thought too....seat switch....go to pick it up and the young kid that is the "mechanic" said it was poor up keep......needed sparkplugs ......wow after 20 hours.....I too am a mechanic.....and NEVER would have said that......why did the plugs foul....but why would the tractor start and run....until you pull the pto.......but as for the pull it is not a fabricated double stack.....meaning it is AL one piece.....I will try to remove the nut then......thanks
