And it’s covered in automotive stuff. I've done that too.... but as we all know the BBT isn't exactly the average either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's how it always is, there's no other way in life. It's still better than going and buying a new green thing though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andy N. 2,378 #24157 Posted Wednesday at 01:30 AM I noticed during the last few months of mowing with the refurbed 312-8 that one of the fuel tank captured nuts had developed a seep. No worries, had some about to expire fuel tank sealant at work so I sealed up both captured nuts and add a flat washer. Leak check was good using the blue dinosaur juice. 3 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
