Back in 86' yeah 1986 I bought a Honda H3009 with the bagger brand spanking new for around $2800. Looks just like your H3813 but with a 30" deck. Sold it after I sold that house for $1400. We finally bought another house with a half acre lot and I picked up my present mower a Honda H3011 in 2004 used and rolled over for $250. So the bagger was out of shape several struts were bent the steering wheel column cover was twisted but the mower ran like it ought to. Over the years I replaced parts that were bent and broken and now I've had this H3011 for 20 years now and over the years I know what to expect from him. But my H3011 started off like a real major fixer-upper and now he looks great again just like yours without the grass cuttings littering the engine compartment. Because god made blowers for specifically cleaning grass clippings off of your mower every time you use it. But I'm wondering . . . . do you still have it?

[@wisconsinsmallenginenut]

Well I don’t think that’s what blowers were invented for, but they work well for that. Yep I still have it. My $50 mower.

I bought a 3011 today, it needs some work for sure but I hope I can get another 20 years out of it.

I got one last year with the mount/plow for 160$. I got it running but its hard to start yours just turned over once or twice and started. I rebuilt the carb with a gasket kit and the idle jet o ring. I welded a 1.7 gallon honda white metal tank on the rear where the bagger mount is. It was REALLY bad and coated with crystalized fuel. Think it needs another clean? Carb bow gets fuel.

[@wisconsinsmallenginenut]

It might. Might have gotten some of that crystalized fuel in it

I have the same unit...I spent $400 on it about 5 years ago, and no problems. Do you have a diagram or photo that shows how the mower deck belt is routed? My belt just shredded and came off, and I can't find a diagram specific to the 3013H. Thanks.

[@wisconsinsmallenginenut]

I don’t. Did you figure it out?

[@williamalbright8878]

Awesome mower. What type of grass is that, looks nice.

[@wisconsinsmallenginenut]

Thanks! It’s just what was here when I bought the place. Probably ryegrass and Kentucky bluegrass
