Recently purchased a Craftsman Riding Lawn Mower with a Briggs and Stratton engine in nice condition but without an Owner's Manual. Would like to know about maintenence such as grease points, type of oil and grade of gasoline to use, etc. Sears and other parts suppliers say owner's manual is no longer available. Does anyone have a manual that they can copy and send me, or FAX, or scan and email, or just send so I can copy and return. Will pay for manual or efforts. Thanks.

Order one from here.

Can you recommend a brand and model of a riding lawn mower that is safe, dependable and has a smooth ride. We have a large yard (2 acres) and my husband has had a back injury.

We have a tractor but need a riding lawn mower to cut grass around the house. Which tractor will hold up with heavy use and be comfortable to operate.

According to the first link below, the John Deere X304 is the best lawn tractor overall.

Second link is price...seems pretty typical though this particular model isn't at Lowe's. Didn't look at Home Depot.

We got an old, second hand Craftsman from a customer. That rider was used on MANY big lawns while hubby had his lawn maintenance business. It was used for 5-6 years before it quit. I wish it was still working!

Speaking only for myself, I'd look into a Craftsman. I'm not fond of Sears, but I loved riding it and miss her sorely as we now have 3 acres!

Price: $119.99

Includes mower, handle, composite wheels
9 grass heights to choose from (1-3 inches) controlled by quick-snap height adjusters
5 heat-treated, steel blades;

It does this while the throtle is wide open and when the engine is idling, it usually happens long after the engine has warmed up. Some times it happens and other times i can run the mower all day without this problem. What could be causing this problem? It has a 19.5hp briggs and stratton I/C V-twin engine

Thanks for any help
This is an intermittent problem, how could it be the governor spring?

check in reverse order Magneto, rotor, wire, plug. then replace the spring on the governor....

The mower is like early 80's or late 70's I think. I cant find a listing for that model anywhere. Any help would be appreciated....

Thanks in advance,

Go to your local TSC Store. They deal with some good Lawn & Garden vendors that probably have the part you're looking for. I would also contact Sears/Roper and see if there is a user manual/parts listing available for your mower (just to make life a little easier).
