Well that's good timing. I ordered a bunch of parts today too.
Although seeing your tab makes me a little more relaxed about my bill. These silly things can Fifty Dollar you to death! I also ordered a throttle cable and knob. Be glad you didn't have to get the other cable next to it that shuts off the fuel. I think it was $47.

So FYI, they are still available unlike some other things like that top radiator hose.

I saw a listing for one at like $175 or some ridiculous amount.

I would also love for you to continue your posts talking about the glow plug mod. I had mine out to compare to a new one at the dealer but they didnt have any instock so i didnt order them just yet. Gonna wait till i have it back together before i spend even more money. Let me know how yours turns out.

Will do. Mine is really being cranky on the first start of the day. After that, it fires off like a dream. Do you have all the links to the write-ups? It looks really simple, involving just the newer style GP's, a simple relay and some heavy gauge wire.

Enjoy that beast. Its kind of hard getting used to smelling differant after mowing the yard with diesel and not a gas burner. But i LOVE it!!!

Me too. I must have diesel exhaust in the blood. My pop ran a small business of grading land, cutting drive-ways, etc., for new homes and smaller commercial worksites. He's a Massey Ferguson man, and I vividly remember the scent of fresh earth and diesel exhaust while I ran around his jobsites on 100° days, getting rocks out of his way.
Anyway, I'll keep updating the 882 progress. You have any photos of your 882?

Nossir. As impatient as I can be, I won't even be tempted to shoot starting fluid down the hatch. It's not worth trying. Thanks very much for that warning
