The one thing I cannot understand is why this channel doesn't have a million subscribers... Great video as always!

[@IndRepair]

I appreciate that! One of these year lol

[@frankie7508]

Another great job! But I must confess, I'm equally impressed that you cleaned up your shop😂! 👍👍👍

[@IndRepair]

Haha! The new guy is doing wonders with the place! In the over 5 years we have been here has never looked this good!

[@bizboomer]

Another excellent video! Great application of experience and common sense in solving a problem. It would be interesting to see JD's tech manual and flat rate for this repair.

[@IndRepair]

Thank you! I am sure they give it at least a couple hours, wonder if they figure in taking off the entire fender and such

[@phil3476]

Saved me. Was really having trouble getting that left plastic tab in.

[@IndRepair]

Glad to help!

[@donwilliams5841]

I like the new style band aid you have on! ...Great job. PPatience! 😮

[@IndRepair]

Haha sent one of the guys to get them and he picked out the ones that have some sort of Neosporin on them. Interesting all colors, thanks for watching!

[@nikekidingram2998]

Excellent. Love your work. A-1 mehanic

[@IndRepair]

I appreciate your kind words of support!

[@knighthawk86855]

I had that issue with a customer's mower, he didn't care about the gas level, he just wanted to be able to use the deck, so I put the metal clips on, and never replace it with the plastic ones, it's just going to break again.

[@IndRepair]

I agree there, it would definitely be a better option. I get many customers that want their stuff original and do not accept any modifications. I guess it keeps the money flowing, which is likely why John Deere designed it like this in the first place

[@philliphall5198]

Thanks 😊

[@IndRepair]

Thank you!

[@bigjwarlok8538]

They make metal brackets. GX22783. Only problem is you lose the fuel gauge.

[@bigjwarlok8538]

Whoops, just notice someone else mentioned these 🤪

[@IndRepair]

@@bigjwarlok8538 Yeah but you provide the part number for everyone, thanks for the mention!

[@phatpastor32974]

Is there a part number for the lever?

[@IndRepair]

There is GX24593 can be purchased at amzn.to/3AmNjdx

[@philliphall5198]

Cheap and cheaper JD AYP mowers are just better built 😊

[@IndRepair]

They are, which is crazy because they used to be bottom of the barrel and now we consider them "better"

[@crowbar3157]

Plastic crap should be metal support brackets with 4 bolts would never fail. But anyway good repair video

[@IndRepair]

It sure should be! I have heard from a few that do a delete on the fuel tank gauge with the old style straps

[@watermanone7567]

NIce fix, What a pile of crap JD has turned out to be.

[@IndRepair]

Thank you! I see probably 10 or 15 of these every season like this, hit a bump and "poof" it breaks

[@markb8954]

Plastic 😣 crap.

[@IndRepair]

Definitely the way of everything anymore it seems. So unfortunate

[@garysgarage3669]

John deer quality is really getting bad.

[@IndRepair]

Many companies are going by the wayside...Kohler was just bought out by a private equity firm, I am sure they will be the next engine manufacturer to cheapen things up significantly
