    Points cover screw threads and sizes.

    As David said,get a wedge screwdriver, after your eye sight starts to go downhill,your fingers lose their nimbleness,and the shop light moves,the milk crate starts to rock you're sitting on,you'll wish you had extras.Don't ask me how I know.

    1864 blade removal

    All good ideas and techniques.We should all say a prayer for the guy that over tightened this.It didn't need to be this tight.Every assembly has its proper torque.Over or under has consequences. A good 6 point socket ,and replace that nut if its messed up.

    Exhaust valve condition on K-301

    [ATT A H=full]145234[/ATTACH] K-301 exhaust valve condition I was checking the adjustments of my valves on my K-301,I thought what the heck,might pull the head and do a head gasket.Does the whitish exhaust valve mean its running lean.

    42 in deck

    When looking at that diagram of the spindles and this conversation on the direction of seal insertion,I'm not embarrassed to ask that when you use the word "backwards" does that mean rubber out,or metal out?So top one should be ??????out.Bottom one should be ?????? out? I just like to do things...

    Newbe Question

    If that dealer wants to make a 600 dollars,he really has to step up to the plate.I'd hand him 300,and drag it out of there,after turning engine over with socket on S/G.
