I posted this on the garden tractor board but have not had any answer to my questions. Please forgive an off topic question.
This weekend I acquired a 175 Hydro lawn tractor with a 38" mower deck. It's somewhere around a 1989 or 1990 model with the Kawasaki engine. The engine and transaxle seem to run great.
