I have had a 1811 for about 6 years now, bought it used with 850 hrs on it. It has been good to me but seems to be a bit wore out. The deck seems a bit wobbly, it starts a bit tough as it misses on one cylinder for a while before it starts to fire, and the engine labors a bit when the 46" deck is running, (engine low on power?) it doesn't smoke but does burn some oil. Overall I've been happy but unsure how much longer its gonna go.
I have found a 1882 that I an considering to purchase. This mower looks similiar in many ways but has independant brakes, power steering and rear PTO. It also has about 800 hours on it, but looks good overall. The owner is asking $1000 with the 50" deck. Are there any concerns about a 1882? or specific areas that I should be looking at?
what do you think is a better machine, the 1811 or the 1882?
