And my thanks go to Bruce for a grouse Site and taking the time to collate/create the PDF manuals and parts lists.

A question for Joe (Keeper of the steroid fed Ranger)

What constituted a "well cared for" Engine?

I usually do oils at 30 hours, keep filters clean, Keep grass off the decks and from time to time gurney the crud off the bottom of the deck for kicks.

I do blades AND BOLTS every Spring and plugs as needed.

Have I missed anything important?

BRRRRRRRRRR Rattle rattle rattle PTUI! rrrrrrr cough cough cough................. Silence.......... Creak mutter mutter NOW where did that %#$*&^%$# blade go?
