It was a great day outside, so before I get into mowing and using the 782 on a regular basis, I knew I needed to change the oil, filter and airfilter.
Wow, I wasn't aware how intense that was going to be, LOL. I was able tho to get the oil filter changed, the air filter cleaned and the pre filter cleaned and re-oiled. While I had everything pretty much apart, I really needed to check out the starter, as it had been squealing, and sticking at times while starting the motor. Believe it or not, removing the starter was a lot easier than dealing with the oil filter, LOL. I got the starter removed, took it apart, cleaned and lubed it and it is working like a brand new one. A fairly good day of maintenance and now I am ready for plowing and mowing. Oh also replace plugs with some new autolite 26's.
