    I finally finished it after six years, but I built a Troy Bilt that is identical to the one in your driveway from scratch with parts from my parts bin. I had everything but the belts. It is 100% factory correct, and I just cut with it for the first time this week. I just wanted to challenge myself and see if I could do it. It is even using a 7 year old battery that I had hanging around in my shop. I guess it pays to be a part hoarder sometimes, lol.

    You are a true shade tree professional mechanic. If I lived in Atlanta I would definitely bring my equipment to o you. No torque wrench and it's a good perfect repair. I learn a lot from your videos.

    Yeah, that was quite a bit of carbon buildup where the valves were on the head. Was really running rich. Hopefully the spark plug isn't fouled too much. Carb issue also. What do you expect? It's an older Toro push mower. It's had a good life for sure.

    Are the Personal Pace mower supposed to actually pull you when you engage them? I have a couple of them that I pulled from the trash recently. I have never owned or worked on a Toro before these two. One of them has a Briggs 7.25, and runs absolutely perfect. The self propel works and the wheels turn when they are off the ground, but the mower doesn't actually pull you. Do I need to tighten the belt or something? I just don't know much about these. I am actually about to give it to my brother as a house warming gift since it is the nicest one that I have right now, so I want to make sure that everything is perfect on it.

    Once in a great while, I get a brief slight smell of iodine in my shower water. That is a distinctive smell which you can't mistake for anything else. It is deep well water, so I assume there is some iodine containing plant material buried way down there that occasionally gets to the well bore. I read somewhere that you can get iodine from kelp, but don't know how true that is. They use iodine to clean machines that make butter between giant batches of butter.
    What is the chance that piece of carbon would get caught exactly in the wrong place? Not much.

      @@mikehrdlicka8635 They might, but this well is in a subdivision that is 50 years old. And I doubt they would use iodine, since it is poisonous and stinks so much. I sometimes get a whiff of sulfur from my water when first using the sprayer in the kitchen sink. That is normal around the northern Gulf of Mexico, since oil and gas deposits usually contain a lot of sulfur. Before they starting removing sulfur from oil, this area used to be a center of sulfur mining using steam to liquify it and pump it to the surface. Sulfur is very important to the chemical and agricultural industries.Touch pure sulfur, and your hand will stink for days.
