Will buying a newer mower solve my issue with dying while cutting thicker grass?
I have an older 6.5 hp Toro and it dies frequently going through tall or thick grass. I bought a brand new Toro with a 190cc 7.25 ft/lb. Torque engine and it had the same problem, perhaps more so. If I spend a little more money (about $400 more than the new Toro) and get the Honda HRX217VKA will it make a difference? It also has a 190cc engine but I've read that the Honda engines are much better.
I would think the problem is you are letting the grass get too high between mowings. Instead, move the blades up to their highest setting, mow then go back and drop the blades to desired height. Actually for my fescue lawn I keep the blades at the highest setting as the more leaf surface, the stronger the plant and root system. In the peak growing months… Depending on your grass type, you might mow every 4-5 days instead of 7 days. Then as temps move into less favorable growing, you can drop back to 7 days.
I need to know if the difference between these two mowers will help at all. I realize that cutting the grass more often would solve the problem entirely, but I don't always have time and usually on days when I do have time to mow it ends up raining. So I need something that will hold up a little better than what I have without going to the commercial brands which cost thousands of dollars.
- Why is my 2006 Honda Metropolitan cutting out at full throttle? When I give my moped full throttle and open it up all the way it just sounds bogged down plus the acceleration is terrible and I have to gradually give it has very slowly. We replaced the air cleaner, fuel filter, coolant, oil, put premium gas in it and also purchased some injector cleaner but it still does this. We thought it was the fuel filter but it hasn't changed it (very much). Any help is appreciated thanks in advance!
- Honda lawn mower starting, blade turning but not cutting grass? It's a Honda harmony 215 (hrb215) it starts on first pull, runs great, when you engage the blade it spins at full power, but when trying to cut grass it doesn't do anything. Doesn't even try to cut it. Have had it in knee high grass even and it doesn't do anything… Any ideas?
- Will cutting 2 inch dropped aftermarket springs damage the spring? Good or Bad idea? I have a 2010 honda accord coupe, i want to lower my car. I saw these springs that will bring my car down 2 inches, but i want to get that extra inch to get it at 3 inches. Is it a good or bad idea? I know cutting factory springs are horrible for the car, but cutting aftermarket lowered springs be bad? I plan on doing this because i can't find 3" inch lowering springs
- I have a 95 honda accord ex that had a vss issue that has been resolved. I also had a tps issue (according to the check engine light code 7)? The vehicle speed sensor and throttle position sensor have been replace but my car makes a weird noise when its in park or at a stop light. It seems like it sputters then goes back to normal idle and it repeats the same process. Any advice would be appreciated!
