    Charlie, I guess the smog IS pretty quiet - Mute, moot... Heh, heh

    Calling all gardeners!

    Thanks for the responses so far. Rick stop hijacking my thread! What do you guys DO with all of that garlic? You can't possibly eat it all, can you? Kraig - nope, no tomatoes or peppers. No one in the family likes them <font size="-2">except for the tomatoes in ketchup!</font>...

    Shoot! In my haste to have fun at Art's expense, I made a fool of myself. I hate when that happens. I don't care what you guys say, the fronts on the 782D just look wrong!

    Oops! Looks like Art mounted the tires on the front of the red one. (Sorry Art, couldn't resist!) Kevin

    Jeff, same here - meat and potatoes, also pie, cake, ice cream, cookies. Top that off with a sedentary occupation and you won't need to add any weight to your IH tractor (to keep it on topic). On a side note, I just received my ebay special new carb for my Briggs twin. I'm taking these two...

    I just don't understand all of you that felt the need to be prepared for snow removal *before* the snow flew. Real men wait until it is 9 degrees outside and 8" of lake-effect snow has fallen before taking off the mower deck, finding the chains, mounting said chains, digging out the blade...

    Different ways to get seat time

    Back when I was a kid, I took piano lessons. Same thing, parents get offered a free piano - can't pass it up. It was an old player piano with the player "guts" missing. If I remember correctly, it took five or six men to get it into our basement family room. When my folks moved years later...

    Ryan, My 16 hp Briggs and Stratton is in need of a rebuild and I thought I'd explore other options before I sink money into the Briggs. I had it halfway apart earlier this year to replace a leaking seal, and was surprised to find no bearings or even bushings - the crank rides in the aluminum...

    Mike- Nice looking 582! That's obviously not the Briggs still in there. What did you replace it with? Did you retain the rest of the original driveline, and if so what did you have to do to make it all "match up"? I'm exploring re-powering options for my 582 but I need something that...

    Jim- Magnetron is Briggs & Stratton's tradename for their electronic ignition module.

    Help! I realize Kohler is the engine of choice for many of you however my 582 came with a Briggs & Stratton which is currently driving me crazy! Earlier this spring I changed a leaking front seal and while I had the engine out I also cleaned the built-up carbon out of the combustion chamber...

    How often does everyone take the deck off of their tractor? Everytime you mow or more like once a season? I grew up watching my dad take the deck off his JD 140 everytime he finished mowing and rinsing the crud off of the bottom. I may be lazy, but that seems like a lot of work to me...

    Congratulations Ryan! My wife shares her birthday with her dad. Poor guy hit a milestone birthday (30) and everyone forgot about him!

    Thanks to all for responses on deck storage. I'm blessed with a three-car attached garage which barely holds two cars. The third bay holds all my home-improvement/woodworking/garden tools/kid's toys/cub stuff and it's pretty crowded! If anyone else has any other unique ideas I'd still love to...

    It's getting to be time to put up the mower deck for the season and put the blade and chains on. Anybody got a good way to store the deck for winter? With wheels/rollers top and bottom, the dang thing has a mind of it's own when you try to lean it up against the wall.
