After the engine repower install, the fuel adjustment screw broke off this my not being able to adjust the fuel mixture. I summarily decided to swap out the carb for the original Scott Keller engine carburetor.
The engine surged quite a bit and wouldnt idle well so the carb swap was a must. The oil was terrible, one of the worst I’ve ever seen and it needed a change. Some of my subscribers told me to adjust the valves however, I didnt feel the need to, but nonetheless, I did it and it needed a small adjustment. The headlight harness was not hooked up so I installed the headlights and cleaned the lenses. I also installed a fuel shut off valve because it is a gravity fed gas tank and it ensures gas will not over flow to the crankcase. I do suspect the needle is not seating correctly and I may have to take the carb apart again. The combustion chamber flooded with gas and in had to relieve it by removing the spark plug and cranking it to blow the hydro lock out to start.
My brakes felt like they were always rubbing, so much that they were smoking. I think I had the brake pads adjustment nut too tight. tou can adjust the tension without removing the wheel.

While test driving forward and reverse, I noticed it wasnt stopping well using the brake pedal. I suspected it needed an adjustment and / or new brake pads. It also had trouble starting sometimes due to too much compression. A valve adjustment fixed the issue.

Took me all day to install the new mower deck belt and mower deck and figure out the adjustment to the PTO engagement. I also fixed the headlight switch and why the battery wasn’t charging.
