4 year old Craftsmen 25 hp with $800 of repairs this spring.

Just mowed thru the leaves and the deck started on fire. Thinking rocks from the road and dry leaves Sad

HOLY crap Mark!

I don't see THAT many leaves to cause that! My God. Never heard of such a thing.

And it was only 4 yrs old? How many hrs did you have on it? What the hell did it need for $800? hell thats a good start on just buying a new one.

Two words for ya Mark........ John Deere..........
