Got a call from my dealer saying a recall has been announced for these tractors. They said they have to send out a mechanic to inspect my machine.
Apparently, when they get painted, some kind of plug is inserted somewhere in the PCV valve for masking. I guess a few machines never had these plugs removed and can cause overpressurization of the crankcase. Resulting in a run away.
Thought I would take a look and see if I could tell what they are talking about before the mechanic comes. Problem is, I am not sure where the PCV valve is located. Strangely, neither my manual nor WSM show its location or even mention it.???
Anyone else get the same call?
