HELLO BX2660.....GOODBYE BX2350

[JOHNTHOMAS]

Now with 3 hours some observations. The safety switch in the seat is more to my liking in the BX2660. It doesn't cut off engine when driving down steep part of yard. BX2350 required constant attention to pushing back in seat. Thought maybe one didn't work on BX2660 because it didn't do it once so I stood up with mower running and in a second or two it started cutting engine. Also fuel gauge indicated a bit under half a tank. I filled it to top and only took a gallon or so. Gauge was then all over the place while mowing. Came back in less than an hour of mowing and put in about 3 gallons which again filled it to top but fuel gauge now shows full. Must be some baffles in fuel tank that had trapped some air at my first filling. The BX2660 seems slower to respond to speed pedal than BX2350 but does not jerk at all in reverse stop so I prefer the slower response and the no jerk in reverse.

I find the fuel gauge on my BX1860 is not too accurate until I park it on level ground. Mostly it just doesn't move off full, but every once in a while it will show 1/2 full when I'm at some odd angle when I know it has more fuel than that.

My G1800 does the same thing. The guage finally starts to move when it gets down to about 1/4 tank. I have resorted to just removing the cap, and shining down a flashlight. I also just add few every 5 hours or so (it has a 5.something gallon tank, and only uses about 1/3 to 1/2 gal/hour.

I did the same thing with my BX2350 because of the HST issue and other annoyances, but walked out of the dealer with a B2620.
