Believe I fixed the glitches.

Please fill out the short survey. I will post the results in a month.

Hopefully this survey will determine if extra fan protection is needed or is it a waste of money.

Thanks

Eric

Filled it out. I had to choose 4 hours on fan replacement time as it was the smallest option. It took me about 2. I also no longer own the tractor.

Now that's what I'm talking about, nicely done!

Btw, is there a way we can see the current results?

Will see what I can do from my end. Not sure if it will allow "live" stats as you probably would need access to my account.

Thanks for the compliment.

I think fan protection is like fire insurance for your house. You hope you never need it. How many of us have had house fires?

I just did the survey. I raised thus in another thread today but isn't there a factory shield on newer BX's? I went to change my rear fuel filter and it looks like a shield to me - isn't documented in the instructions on accessing/removing that filter. It's not as robust as BXPanded's but it looks to offer decent protection.

Guess it all depends on how you use your bx and how "careful" you are with them.

Reading most posts over the years where owners have 120hrs of use after 5 years leads me to believe that most owners don't necessarily NEED a BX; a riding mower would probably do.

Not judging as ALL are free to spend their hard earned $$ as they see fit!

For those of you that have responded so far 32 thank you.

For the following comment

"this survey is awful. I had no problems but was kinda forced to select that I did"

If you need help filling out this SIMPLE survey then you probably shouldn't be operating machinery!

It's funny that those who complain the most are those NEVER willing to do anything proactive.

I have no clue as to who has replied and want to keep it anonymous as knowing who serves no purpose.

I don't pretend that the survey is perfect or even good but it serves it's purpose; to relay to BX owners if the HST fan issue really is and if so when and how they get damaged.
