I know most of the more senior people here already know the air filtration on this tractor is insufficient. I replaced the filter last spring, and got a call from my wife today on her way to work reporting no power and people flipping her off for blocking traffic. From previous experience, I knew it was the filter, so I bought one on the way to look at it.
The darn box was packed full of dried grass and paper towels. I just cannot understand why they can't make these things able to tolerate things like a mouse's nest in the airbox. Maybe it's time to fit the inlet with a steel screen?
My wife blames me for the all the issues with this vehicle, but then again I always come out the hero when I already know what to do.
