The fuel pump on the Kohler K582 fitted to the Bolens HT-23 is failing. (well, failed now)
The engine would start, but then die, not to restart without fueling from a squirt bottle down the carb bore.
So I towed the Bolens into the shop for a look see. (I've replaced the fuel pump some years back for the same reason)
Well, when pushing the tractor to the desired spot in the shop. engine off. I heard a "clink", that I didn't like.
Lug nuts on the right hand front wheel were all loose! No reasons why or how, but I seldom check lug nuts! And when the engine is going, I never could hear that "CLINK"!
All better now, just "sharing". ;-)
