BBBBAAAWWWAAAHHHHHAAAAA!!!!!

That's really amusing.


True... you couldn't get them sharpened for 12 bucks!


Honest to pete - Huskie doesn't make a three blade deck under 48" and
never has. To get a 48" deck, it has to be a minimum 25hp - mine's a
25 horse, 48" deck, hydro drive and it's just barely sufficient for
the three acres of lawn I have to mow - it ain't no "small" lawn
tractor either.

I get dealer cost on my blades and they are $36 a three pack from
Huskie.

There isn't a farm dealer in the world who's going to make that kind
of mistake selling mower blades.


It's a damn shame that a person can't make a list of tasks related to
a lawnmower and not be questioned about whether or not he actually did
them.

It's a 'Peter and the Wolf' story if one ever existed.

Yup. Bought them last year way out in Virginia at a big farm equipment
store. Three blades, with an $11 and change sticker on them. Maybe it
should have been $11 each, but I was charged under $12. Standard issue
from Husky, too...not OEM.

You silly ****, sure he did. Got readin'?



No, ****-for-brains, I happened to buy them *when* we were out in Luray.
We didn't drive to Luray for garden tractor parts.


Where is luray anyway? Pennsylvania?

There is net capacity. For example fifty gallons liquid. Adding the
manditory ten percent expansion space requires a 55 gal barrel
A five and a half quart container holds five quarts a common exact
quantity for an oil change. Many cars take just exactly that. It is
way more than you need for a Kawasaki twin, 20 hp,[ what we have] or
anything similar.

We have other items in the garage besides autos that have four-cycle

did a D&C on my little lawn tractor. I haven't done work like this in
years. It was running fine, but who knows what you can bust with
preventive maintenance? :)
Any, after powerwashing under the hood, I
Replaced the two NGK plugs for a $1.50 each
Replaced the Kawasaki air filter elements for $20
Replaced the Kawasaki fuel filter for $5
Replaced the Kawasaki oil filter for $7 (from John Deere, which uses Kaw
engines in some models)
Replaced the three blades on the deck for $12
Greased a few fittings
Pulled and cleaned the carb, found a piece of grass near the jet
Put in a quart of fresh oil
Used a couple of dabs of dielectric grease
Amazingly, after five years of hard use, the drive and deck belts were
in fine shape, visibly
Reassembled, no parts left over. Starts, runs. Amazing.
I do need a new battery.
I mention this because, believe it or not, you used to be able to work
on outboard motors this casually, without a great deal of
engine/electronic knowledge, and with simple tools. Those were the days.
We're proud of yer Krausie. We didn't have a clue that you are so handy

BTW a 3 blade mower seems a bit overkill for the less than 1/4 acre you

He's trying to compensate... kind of like having a big, "go-fast"
boat. And "a quart" of oil isn't enough for a Kaw twin... even the
Kohler and B&S 14 hp singles use 1-1/2 quarts. I call BS.
Ahh, well...I didn't measure that closely, not being anal, as you are.

No... look again. He buys his oil by the "jug".

Pontoon boats are for people who would rather be using a boat than
waxing it..

There is a company I am in touch with that will sell you a basic
pontoon boat with .1" thick aluminum hulls for about $5000

(no furniture)


There isn't a single body of water that I spend time on that'd be
safe to navigate on a pontoon "boat." I'd trust my 11' Whaler before
I'd cross open water on a pontoon.

We have to use real boats in the NW, unless it's a lake. Even the
lakes here can have big water and they're pretty boring if you've
spent time on Puget Sound, San Juan and Gulf Islands and myriad
destinations between Seattle and Alaska.

I categorize boats as having a hull and gunwhales, maybe I'm wrong.

Rafts don't pass as boats in my book.

Only a fool would change oil without cutting opening the filter to

usually have one. We used to change the oil and filter every twenty

That is simply because you have never actually been on one in rough
water I suppose. Unless your Whaler is over 18-20', I will go anywhere
you go (and there are a lot of places in shallow water I will go and
you can't). I can run at idle speed in about 12" of water without
chewing up the grass.
The thing we have in common is both are virtually unsinkable., I have
the advantage that when mine is capsized I still have a place to
stand.



I rented a 22' pontoon boat once to cruise on the St. Johns River in
Jax. Rode out towards the jetties. Got a bit choppy on the way back, and
the pontoon boat was a really miserable ride. Wind was blowing it
around, too.

I'd cross open water on a pontoon.


That is simply because you have never actually been on one in rough
water I suppose. Unless your Whaler is over 18-20', I will go anywhere
you go (and there are a lot of places in shallow water I will go and
you can't). I can run at idle speed in about 12" of water without
chewing up the grass.
The thing we have in common is both are virtually unsinkable., I have
the advantage that when mine is capsized I still have a place to
stand.


I rented a 22' pontoon boat once to cruise on the St. Johns River in
Jax. Rode out towards the jetties. Got a bit choppy on the way back, and
the pontoon boat was a really miserable ride. Wind was blowing it
around, too.


Why did you do that? Wasn't the Hatteras good enough?

What do you think it would have been like in an 11' whaler?

When I am out with the guys in the 16-17' center consoles in the chop
they are getting tossed around worse than me and when we finally get
up and run, I get wet, they get pounded.

When the chop is running 2+ even a 27 ft runabout with decent V bottom
deadrise is too small for comfort. One of my neighbors had an old 29
ft SeaRay cruiser that ran pretty well in those conditions however.
I think the extra weight makes part of the difference.


You know where I am running. It is rare that I ever see much of
anything that bounces me around. The worst is when you get that combo
of a stiff outgoing tide and a wind in from the west. That puts pretty
big standing waves in Big Carlos pass but I usually just skirt around
the beach line and miss them.

I use my boat for lots of things and having over 100 square feet of
clear deck space is pretty handy. It is certainly a good work boat
when I am doing things for DEP



Ever meet this guy? Pretty area. Never been there.

Only a fool would change oil without cutting opening the filter to
check just what it has trapped. When you see glitter, rebuild the
motor. I have the special tool for that. It isn't expensive. Racers
usually have one. We used to change the oil and filter every twenty
minutes or so running time, that is once a week. We used the double
length truck filters.

You changed the oil every 20 minutes? Must have taken you a hell of a
long time to get anywhere. * :)


My gawd, you must be border line retarded.

Good size. Someone must find approximately 4.5 quarts an even quantity

Jugs holding 5.5 quarts of four cycle motor oil are generally available.

Gotta love poor dumb loogy's inability to read: I never said I bought
the jug of oil for my lawn tractor. I have a handful of "machines" here
that use four cycle oil, including the lawn tractor, a couple of cars,
an outboard motor, a small generator, et cetera.

I think loogy must be housebound...either that, or he's never been to an
auto supply store, a Sears or, puke, even the auto parts section of,
puke, Wal-Mart.

Oh my... you didn't just grab some 10W-40 and pour into the Huskie,
did you? *It specifies 30W, and that's something you wouldn't use in
your cars, your boat... maybe in the generator.


You have to top off the oil in your old, clapped out cars and boat?


Why would you assume I used a multigrade? Because I showed a photo of a
5.5 quart jug from a vendor's site? It was the first 5.5 quart jug I
found. Because I have several devices that have four cycle gas engines
and you assumed I wouldn't give each the oil it specifies? Have you been
sleeping with loogy again?


How many different 5.5 quart jugs of oil do you have?


I'm betting one, and he uses it in everything. *He bought 10w-50, and

I have to say something about ETECS. The local Sea Tow here which is one
of the busiest on the east coast is using ETECS on several of their
boats, twins in fact. They probably put more hours on those engines in
one season than you've but on yours in 10 years.

They have no problem with the ETECS. Methinks you're a blowhard.

Ah for the days..... I had a Plymouth Belvedere with a slant six. I
could get in the engine compartment and actually stand on the floor,
in front of the front steering components! I took the engine out of it
in one evening. After rebuilding it put it back in in an evening.
