Filter? If the 2680 is like my 23s, There are 2 fuel filters. one at the engine and one under the tractor.

seems like you made up your own mind. Why even ask? 26 hours? I wouldn't touch a thing. I'd spend the $30 on a good bottle of Tequila instead. :devilish:

Yep I know guys who do that with motorcycles.... start it up in the dead of winter and let it run in the garage for 10 minutes then shut it down.... or rev the piss out of it... 🤡 I don't start anything unless I'm going to use it/ride it properly. (full operating temperature)

You must be retired.... you sure have a lot of free time.. :devilish: :LOL::LOL::LOL::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Thaw frozen pipes too.

My first AC stick welder when I was a kid was a Marquette looked kinda like a lincoln tombstone but uglier... :ROFLMAO: worked great. AC 180 amp if I recall
