I’m a retired mechanic. I know this already but I still think it’s a good idea to still explain what and how to service the everyday machine that we use . Great video and keep up with your knowledge. 😎

Thank you for the comment! I know these videos can be boring to some of the Subscribers, but ultimately it's these kinds of videos that have grown the channel the fastest, so I continue to make them. Thank you for the encouragement!

Excellent video. Just bought a used one and even though it runs like a champ the guy said he replaced all the filters and performed an oil change over the phone; once he delivered it nothing had been done. So, yes, great deal (126 hours) great running but now I get to replace all the filters and oil change, spark plug etc.

Thank you for watching! I have a spark plug video as well. I’m sure it will still be a great machine for you.

Wow! I am so happy to hear this! Thank you for your kind words and for watching. I’m so glad I could help you.

I've found my quick release drain plug leaks like a seive after a couple of oil changes. I replaced mine with a couple of nipples, an elbow, and a ball valve. No leaks. I also replaced the filter with a Fram filter from Walmart. Not the best filter but a lot cheaper.

There was a time when Fram was the top dog. These days they get a lot of heat but I wonder if some of that isn’t just the social media bandwagon.

Idea on how to reset the change oil indicator? I changed oil and air filter just curious how to reset that.

I have an lt42b, goid luck with getting to the quick drain. Some genius put the wiring harness, on the frame, about an inch and a half away from the quick drain. The wires are heavily pressing down on the quick drain, making it extremely difficult to turn and pull out the drain. Other than that changing the oil was normal.

That’s discouraging!
