Kal130, nice pics-- didn't think to get some shots of mine before I put it in.

You may have already read this, but the threads on the electrical connection are the same as a garden hose; you can put a garden hose cap on there to keep the cord safely removed and stuff out of the socket during the warmer months (all 3 of them!:laughing::laughing:).

Just about 0 here this AM, and I'm about to go out & blow off the driveway...AGAIN.:cool: Time to get suited up, I guess.

Think it was supposed to be -6 here in NCIN last night. Guess I'll see when I get off work this morning. :). Glad we didn't get dumped on last night. I'd have to bust out the hunting gear!

For the sake of pampering the tractor think I'll get one of those heaters. Irvingj, just got in from blowing started at 4:30 and it's a losing battle here, it's blowing like ****, some drift cutters would be nice right about now.

Hose cap seems like a good idea, BUT. I tend to suffer from CFS quite frequently and I can very easily see me at the parts counter every fall ordering a new cord. Lol

Can I assume this means nobody wants measurements?

Thanks for the photo's.

I would sill like the diameter of the part that you insert, and the length of the insertion.

Good luck

Could you be more precise please? :D

Any chance you could mic the freeze plug?

Thanks

Can the cord be turned 180* and still go together? I hate how my cord loops up and over the top. It has to be stressing the wires, given vibration and all.

36 mm seems to be an odd size. 35mm is very popular. Even 36.5 mm is more popular than 36mm.

I found several possible options, but they have few specifications, besides the 36 mm bore. So, I sent an e-mail to Zero Start, along with the photo, and specifications.

I will post any replies.
