Ratio's are very different. Power is the same. Hydro's are the same. Linkage is different.

Well, again.... I don't know. Still sounds like operator error. The pic of the springs look fine. Sure it has some wear, but nothing that bad. Spring isn't broken is it? Are both springs present?

I have the proper tools to do what im doing. While Im welding the trunnion "might as well since I have it apart" I will also weld the safety switch lever. I dont want to jumper it because god forbid I forget to take the jumper out my son could come along and start it...
Put a jumper wire in. You can remove the key to keep the kid from starting it. It does have a key doesn't it??
