    Z121S Loss of Power Initial Repair

    Ok all, I posted about the loss of power on my Z121S last week, thanks for your replies. I just installed the new fuel line that sits in the fuel tank. There is now a screen on the end of the pipe but the pipe is about half an inch longer than the original. I only hope that it does not kink in...

    Fuel Filter

    Quick question all, when the mower is running, should the fuel filter be full of fuel? Just one of those questions that bounces around in my head. Thanks! Be safe!

    Z121S Mows Fine for 30 minutes then Loses Power

    Thank you so much for the input. I did look in the tank yesterday before posting, looks clean. I also cut the end of the tube so it has the "v" shape. One or two coils on these units?

    Agreed, how do you tell if there is debris? I see no holes and it is the stock cap.

    Oil Drain Plugs

    Thanks. Never thought of sealant. The plug is damaged, no question. Thoughts on how to correct the situation? Plug goes in but not far. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Oil Drain Plugs

    Quick one. So I pull out the additional plug. Sucker seemed loose and there appeared to be pipe dope on it. Thoughts? Can you use putty on drain plugs? I’ve never seen it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Oil Drain Plugs

    Hey all, Steve here. I have a Z121s 48”. I am trying to change the oil but I cant get the drain plug off the little hose. Tractor went in for service last season and the tech must have been a gorilla. Plus it’s stripped. Is there another drain plug? I see what looks like a drain plug near the...
