    Loud Craftsman Riding Mower

    Thanks guys, I will pull the muffler off and give it a look. I have done all other maintenance but could probably use a new air filter and adjust the valves.

    Loud Craftsman Riding Mower

    Ok guys and gals, Another off topic question: My 2008 Craftsman 17.5hp riding mower is noticeably louder (to me) than when new. I understand that the blades make a good bit of the noise, but with them off the mower just seems a lot louder than it used to be. I wear ear muffs, but just...

    Going to switch to once a week watering. What should I shoot for .5" to 1"?

    Lawn Care (Sod)

    I just saw the Milorganite, looks like good stuff. I may go that route and just work on my watering. I like the tuna can idea. I may be watering too frequently and not long enough, as I have it set for roughly 15 minutes each zone every morning.

    Lawn Care (Sod)

    Will look into TruGreen, but I know their treatments for my in-laws yard is a lot more than $50 every 3 months. I have the timer set to start the stages in the irrigation at 5am. When should I be watering to avoid fungus?

    Lawn Care (Sod)

    Sounds like a plan! A couple of bags of this for the sod? Scotts 5000-sq ft Turf Builder Southern All Season Lawn Fertilizer Have roughly 8100 square feet of sod in the front yard.

    Lawn Care (Sod)

    Not sure if anyone here is in the landscaping/mowing business or stayed in a Holiday Inn Express last night and can inform me a little. We built a house recently and the centipede sod was laid down in December, so naturally it has been dormant for the most part after being laid down and is...

    Rinseless wash question

    I know the feeling. I plan on doing a rinseless wash on my wife's Yukon in the garage tonight, but it is just an uphill battle with the pollen. My question is, do some of you just rinse off the car with the hose or HP wash real quick before the rinseless wash? After that question, once you...

    Electric Pressure Washer GFCI

    I have seen those too, but figured I would hold off and confirm that was the issue first. Thanks!

    Electric Pressure Washer GFCI

    I haven't used my little cheapo pressure washer since I have moved into our new house. I think somewhere in the move, the GFCI plug got thrown around a little bit, as the unit won't turn on. Is there any harm in replacing the GFCI plug with a standard 3-prong as long as the house outlet is...

    Rinseless Wash Media?

    I do have a CarPro Wool Mitt, but I just assumed it wouldn't be ideal since it is one sided, may give it a try. So many good options. Lots of good things about the Megs Mitt and the AG Mitt. I will probably buy a Megs one local, and have the AG Mitt on order. And I will take my time and...
