Hey folks, posting pictures today of the setup. I stuck new blades on it last week and now when I first engage the PTO (for about 30 seconds or so of driving) the blades spin pretty slow. It picks up speed after that, until I hit a somewhat thick spot (shouldn't come close to too thick for mowing) it's maybe 2 inches of grass it's cutting, but it's dense areas of grass it starts to do this. Any reason why this might be? I just regreased all the bearings on the deck as well. Kind of stumped. The engine does not bog down at all, so I wouldn't think it would be an engine issue. Also, after the mower has been running for a long time and I turn it off, if I start it within 5 minutes or so it has a hell of a time starting back up. It starts up great cold, and runs perfect otherwise.


Thanks again for your knowledge!

I should point out, I've already cleaned the carbs and jets, replaced air filter, new plugs, and new fuel filter. I have not ran any seafoam through yet, that's next on my list.
