This spring i bought a 94 scag zero turn (61"deck, 22hp Kohler engine) from my brother. It came with the house he bought last fall, and he wanted something nicer. I just wanted something better than a POS 42"Craftsman that I had been using. Ever since I bought it, it'd bog down fairly easy and take what ess in my mind too long to recover. I was worried I got the raw end of the deal with it.
Today I checked the spark plugs. One was gas soaked after running it for a few minutes on and off doing some yard work. The other one, the wire wasn't pressed tightly onto the plug. I just replaced them both, made sure both wires are pressed onto the plugs, and cut my yard. In the time I've had it, it hasn't run so good. Started easier although still a little cold blooded, and never fellnon it's face while mowing. I got it to bog down a few times but it had some grunt and kept going. My main limiter on some of my yard was how fast I could go and stay in the seat.
I'll still plan to replace it at some point with something that has a suspension, but now I'm much happier about my purchase. Also shaved atleast another 1/2 hour off my mowing time on my 2+ acres I cut with it.
