TimJr 206 Posted June 1, 2005 Gee, wonder why there aren't bids on it. Not a real bright bulb there - I get what he was thinking, but obviously forgot the drawbacks to the idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HubbardRA 19 Posted June 2, 2005 Deck pulls a vacuum - Wow that would mean more horsepower! Spinning blades would act like a muffler - Great that would make it quiet so I don't need a muffler. Duh! Do ya think this could possibly cause other problems. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomSchmit 52 Posted June 2, 2005 I agree that this home-made system is not very smart, but there are factory-made systems that put exhaust out under the deck. I have a Lawn Boy self-propelled walking mower (about 15 years old) that blow the exhaust from the engine into the mower deck housing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nick 0 Posted June 3, 2005 I sent him a question basiaclly asking if I won the auction and I parked it in the garage and it burned down the house would he would buy us a new one. Don't know if I will here back from him or not. Reminds me of the barn fire that Rob-B mentioned where that the grass heated up caught the tractor on fire and burned down the barn. UPDATE at 5:52 PM.- The seller ended his relisted auction early. I wonder if my message had something to do with it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
