Hello everyone,

Going to run a new to me 149 this winter with a QA-42 snowthrower, but first I have to rebuild the PTO (sounds like a blender when I turn it on). I saw the post about the PTO diagram, but is there a "How to" guide for rebuilding the front end PTOs?

Also how do I prepare it for winter (other than the recommended winter weight oil), and how to I ensure it starts easy even when it's 0 degrees out and I have two feet of snow to move to get out of my driveway? Is there a way to add a block heater, or am I going to have to keep it hooked up to my start-cart and pray a little every time?
