I AM TRYING TO REPLACE THE BEARING ON THE MOWER DECK SPINDLE. IT IS A 38" 2 SPINDLE DECK. SHOULD I USE A PULLER TO REMOVE THE BOTTOM BRACKET FOR THE BLADE.

Hey Bill, did you post your question in the right place?? Your profile sez u have a 127, but this area is for 81 lawn tractors. If for your 127, post in the main forum, you'll get some sort of an answer even on a slow day.

Keven, I would try adjusting the needles on the carb. The low speed or Idle screw should be set at a turn and a quarter where the high speed screw should be set at a turn and a half. When running on idle play around with the low speed screw until the engin sounds like it's Idling properly. It is Important Adjust the low speed screw before the high speed screw
