    Okay, here's one for the expert diagnosticians here. My 147 was running great, but suddenly died so I assumed it ran out of gas. I went to the gas station to fill my can. When I got back and approached the 147, the coil exploded and smoking oil went everywhere. I put a new coil on it...

    Okay, your Hy-Tran looks just like my "Hydraulic/Transmission Fluid" except for 1 qt. instead of 1 gal. Good 'nuff. Thanks! -Chip Stewart "It's very hard to live in a studio apartment in San Jose with a man who's learning to play the violin.' That's what she told the police when she...

    When I asked my local dealer for Hy-Tran the other day, he sold me "Hydraulic/Transmission Fluid" (737-3062). Is this the same stuff? He said it was, but I keep hearing "Hy-Tran" mentioned here. I'd like to do a fluid change, but will wait on the consensus here. Chip Stewart

    Okay, so I have a 38" non-cast deck. I wondered about the 10+20+10 thing, but who am I to question the seller who claimed it was a 42". I thought maybe the 42" only cut 40" - like my 19" computer monitor actually measures less than 19". Can you Cadet gurus recommend any high lift blades for it?

    This is good timing on the 42" deck discussion. I just tried attaching my later model grass catcher on my new (old) 147. With a little drilling, bolting, etc. I was able to get everything rigged up (didn't even have to use any duct tape!). The only problem is, I don't get enough velocity to...

    That's a beautiful set-up, Terry, but do I spy leaping deer on the weights on the back? ;-) Still, I'd love to have toys like that on my 147 - you got a kit for that?

    Hi all. I'm a newbie and thought I'd introduce myself. I just upgraded my 1110 mower to a real 1970 model 147 tractor (my first) and have already found this forum invaluable. SWMBO doesn't understand why I'd want something nearly as old as I am instead of something pretty and newer, but I...
