    I converted the file to .mp4 from .avi and uploaded a new link. Lotta people aren't equipped to play .avi files, but that's what came from the camera display's SD card.

    That Amazon listing didn't mention sound, and I don't see any microphones, and I don't hear sound on the original files. So you won't get to hear me use any "French" words when I'm trying to get lined up for the next pass . . . :anonymous:

    The set I bought has 2 cameras. Earlier I just had the one attached under the Speeco label on the QH. I might try using the second cam on the rear of the Grinder housing as shown, to facilitate getting lined up until I gain more experience. The display is just stuck to the fender with magnets currently. The housing over the instrument cluster is plastic. And I'm powering the display quick and dirty right now.. my Noco jumper box in the carrying basket... :)

    Got my annual mower maintenance done today. Oil change, oil filter, spark plugs, fuel filter, and air filter. Took the deck off and cleaned underneath and sharpened the blades. All zerks greased and a good wash makes it ready to go! I did notice the plug in Cyl 2 had a little oil-looking residue on it. It wasn’t soaked but definitely a difference from Cyl 1.

    Yes... the hood or possibly on a magnetic angle bracket stuck to the inside of the upright from the loader. I gotta see what works, and what can be easily removed when not needed.

    rotated tires changed oil threw out the old air freshener.
    Does that engine have a single coil with two plug leads? Or does it have two discrete coils?

    If single coil, (with Wasted spark ignition) one of the two sparks has to jump "the wrong way" across the plug. That's the way it is with older Kohler twins. It can make for difficult starting after some period of use on any set of plugs. I was in the habit of swapping plugs right to left every season, to "clean up" the dirty plug.

    Reserected from the dead.

    That engine has 2 coils. I don't know if any motors that use the wasted spark method in over 20 years.

    What engine is that? It may need the valves adjusted.

    Then it wouldn't hurt to check the lash.

    .004-0.006 is what the manual says.

    Don't make the mistake I made.

    .038 is not close to .004...oops.

    The engine in my x380 is the Kawasaki FR691V (K58 transaxle). Other than noticing the one plug being a different color, I haven't noticed any issues at all with it. It starts right up every time. Right at 200 hours on it now.
