This is weird because I just bought a bunch of maintenance stuff for my riding mower, lol. I mowed the front lawn last week and got half the back lawn done and broke a drive belt on the mower that I put on 3 seasons ago. It was an OEM belt from Husqvarna that I gave $40 for. This time I went to Ace and got a belt made by Rotary Corp. in Glennville, GA USA for $54. Hope it holds up longer than the last. Also picked up oil for it, a new Wix oil filter, fuel filter and air filter for it. I'll just clean up and reuse the old spark plug as it's only a couple seasons old and still has plenty of life left in it. I'll also grease the spindles, axles and steering gear while I'm at it. I replaced the deck belt last fall with a belt from Rotary, so no need for a new one of those just yet.
Might I suggest instead of using red and tacky grease for the wheels and such try a marine grade water proof grease. Still super tacky, spins well and when you wash the mower it prevents rust better as well. I think it would be better for snowblowers as well. Since I've started using it on my snowblower and snow pushing garden tractor I've found it actually does repel water better.
I agree 100% with all those products. I just did the spring time ritual of going thru my mowers (removing deck, check out bearings and lubricating moving parts, etc.) Now I'm almost giddy waiting for the grass to get long enough so I can get out there and mow!
My gas cans are approaching 20 years of age JB and nothing I have seen beats them for pouring or ease of filling. Every year I think I should replace them...but why do so. If it aint broke...! I am off now to stock up on some other essentials because I spent a good part of this AM watching your video and learning....always with much gratitude.
Hey Joe! Stock up my friend! Your mower will thank you! And keep those old cans around for a while! Nothing beats a classic. Any other plans for the weekend my friend?
I wanted one of them walk behind John Deere mowers when I was a kid but it was out of my price range. They really seemed like well built quality mowers, unfortunately JD isn’t in the residential walk behind market anymore. I did buy a John Deere S 240 rider a few years ago so I filled the void from my youth😎
Thanks JB! Very informative video! I actually have had problems with my gas cans newer designs, leaking but seeing this video...I may have come up with an idea...🎉🔨 Now I'm Off to go see what I can find a Round The Outside in my yard to fix the problem 🤪 😂 Btw...great script writing master, on this video! 🍾🥂
ROCK ON ROB! I’ve only seen one decent newer gas can that a guy had mounted to his landscaping trailer had a pour spout built in the bottom. Kinda cool! Let me know what you come up with! Keep a close on next weeks video! 😉
LOVE IT!! I have 2-3 replacements on hand of every single part that could possibly need replacing. Gives you peace of mind! And what a shame we have such an overreaching government that we have to modify our simple gas cans. 🤦🏻♂️😡 AWESOME vid, JB! 👉🏻👍🏻
You’re right about the peace of mind! Kind of like being ready for a storm. Saves time money and frustration down the road. Stupid regulations ruining a good thing. Thanks for watching as always bud!👍
Great mower tips JB! Simple maintenance will definitely prolong your mower! I do the same thing with my leaf blower after every use of the JD tractor. Even after using it to snow blow. I’m digging that new blade sharpening tool you got. I’ll have to stop by with a couple blades to see how it works. Haha! What’s up for the weekend?
Picking up the Grandsons this morning and if I have any energy left, I'll scrape and power wash the JD mower deck. Tomorrow probably the same as you. Hopefully it won't be too cloudy. Have a great weekend my friend!!
JB: "At least you can eat the burrito shell. You can't eat the bowl." The Mace: "Challenge accepted." 🤣 Also, one should never ding up your DECK. That's something that can follow you everywhere. 😜
In the summer I also want to paint the rusty spots on my ariens snowblower with Ariens Orange, but it's covered with fluid film. (I wonder who told me to do that 🤣). I'd be interested in a video on how to prep the surface including getting the fluid film off so it can be primed and painted. 🙏
@@brandon_burbach hey Brandon you could use something like super clean degreaser or maybe even brake cleaner to get the fluid film off. Warning though it does discolor some paints to use it lightly. 👍
Hey Jeff! Might cry if I ever have to sell those mowers. I agree! Those gas cans should get more time on camera! 🤔 I’ll have to think of something! Thanks for watching bud!
Hey 12hpypws! Try giving your spark plug a cleaning so you don’t have to keep buying them. Here’s a video BEFORE YOU BUY ANOTHER SPARK PLUG FOR YOUR SNOWBLOWER, WATCH THIS! th-cam.com/video/HG9KPWxrty0/w-d-xo.html
👍🏻I’ve also been using Supertech full synthetic 10w30 for years in my Honda mower, Kohler powered log splitter & small Yamaha generator. And same oil but 5w30 in my Generac standby generator. Awesome oil for the money. I bought a 5gal VP Racing gas jug with a flexible clear spout. It has no weird valves or triggers, just a big jug with a screw vent cap. I use my electric Worksharp belt sharpener to sharpen my blade. I used to use a Dremel but with a 80 or 120 grit belt, it’s faster & easier.
LOL! My gas can is brand new, but it's the same old style we used when I was a kid. It's a steel can made by JustRite It seals shut with a spring latch and a cork gasket, has a large pouring spout and a detachable funnel that you can leave attached and pour straight from the can into. They have a spark arrestor built-in to the spout for when filling up at the gas station and they last forever. They're a bit pricey but as with most things, you get what you pay for and at my age (55) I doubt I'll ever need another one, unless I buy a blue one for kerosene for my torpedo heater.
Hey Bud, just watched and as always, I gain. I'm going to check out the blade holder that is awesome. I see you use 5-30 on mowers. I always thought straight 30 was for summer. That's my learning for today. We just got 4" of slush Thursday and I used my Toto 5/21 with my Predator for the first time awesome. It did clog at the end as it was too heavy. Thinking of buying another to replace my 208cc-factory engine on my Craftsman Quiet Technology, we'll see. Be well my friend.
Hey John! I learn a lot just being involved with this community as well! 5w-30 full synthetic generally has a wider temperature range. Most manuals mention that 30 is good too. Winter is finally letting go around here but crazy you’re still getting some! Go for it with that engine swap and keep me posted! Appreciate the PayPal you sent my way my friend! I’ll be sure to take the garage gal out for dinner! Appreciate you as always my friend! 👍
Thank you for the tips. The grease in your video does not have “#2” on the label but the one linked on Amazon does have #2. Is that one ok to use? Also, my Timemaster blade bolts are getting rusty on the threads. Is it a good or bad idea to clean those off with penetrating oil spray or some other product or would that actually loosen them. I didn’t want them to rust more than what is happening now.
I would love to purchase an All american blade sharpener jig one day. Until then I'm stuck in the old ways of using a vice & cone balancer. I think you covered everything in this video.❤
Yep sold the timemaster last spring. That thing is nothing but problem after problem. Sold the recycler last fall to fan of the channel. He didn’t mind the baby stroller handle so much. Thanks for watching Joseph
@@GarageGear I sure as shit hope so! Random trivia… my dad is a retired lawyer in a small town in Vermont. Dealt with really random stuff, wills, real estate, property disputes, etc. nothing fancy. But random people move to small towns lol. He knew the guy who came up with the idea to crush glass and put it in the paint they use for lines in the road to make it reflective. Some people have great ideas that hit at JUST the right time.
Awesome video thank you! I use the gas cans from the local atv store, I think they are race gas cans They are awesome and get rid of all the bs. You also have all the ingredients for "sotar" sauce (if ya know ya know!)
Hi there, really enjoy ur informative videos! Question what’s your top personal opinion for the best lawn mower that is durable, efficient and long lasting? I heard Honda is out of the lawn mower business.
Honda is probably the best for homeowner models. If you can still grab one go for it. If you want something nowadays that’s gonna last go commercial. Toro, Exmark, Kubota
I switched over to Surecan about 4 years ago. Love them. I picked up several at Equip show from the maker. Second, I also have about 5 of those scrapers from the Equip Expo. They gave them away for free!!! I pick them up each year I attend the show. I keep one on my trailer that moves my zero turn. I can also use it to get under my mower to change blades and clean off the deck. Great tips.
In your opinion what is a better lawn mower .im looking at toro,scag and ariens.I have a a battery powered kobalt 80 volt and i have some aziol grass and my battery powered mower has a problem with it.not enough torque
@@LL-mt2nz thanks I had a old toro for about 30 years and never had a problem tried battery powered but it doesn’t have the power of gas I gave my old toro to my niece and they love it
Would love it if u could review a cub cadet self propelled lawn mower or a dewalt 163cc mower. Intrested in buying a new mower, use to have a toro recycler babied it but it only lasted 8 years which isn’t bad but was expecting more. My previous mower was a Murray it lasted me 18 years. Would appreciate it if you could review a different brand of mower then Toro or Honda. Great video by the way!
@@GarageGear Thank you for considering it. Appreciate the thought. Keep up the good work. In my opinion one of the best channels I have come by in years, the work and time you put into your videos doesn’t go unnoticed. We all enjoy watching you make videos like these.
@@suhailkhan3710 appreciate the positive feedback suhail. A lot of work goes into every video. Roughly 10 hours each. I did see some decent new cub cadets that worth a look at a local shop recently. If not this year, definitely will look at them next season.

Great idea to keep all of the stuff to keep your.lawn mower in top running condition
RIGHT ON Robert! 👍
Spark plug.. For my trimer, I had to check several big box and automotive stores. Had to settle for an Autolite.
Hey 12hpypws! Try giving your spark plug a cleaning so you don’t have to keep buying them. Here’s a video BEFORE YOU BUY ANOTHER SPARK PLUG FOR YOUR SNOWBLOWER, WATCH THIS!
th-cam.com/video/HG9KPWxrty0/w-d-xo.html
Extra carburetors? I don’t think so.
Thanks for watching
I agree 110% my leaf blower is my favourite tool I own. Like you said it blows off grass and dirt, and moisture that can lead to rust.
Best tool in the garage lol! Thanks for watching Ray!

Yep sold it last fall. Mowers come and go here in this garage. Only a select few make the cut! Lol
How about an instructional video for sharpening blades with the blade sharpening kit you mentioned? Thanks for all the valuable info, Sir!
That might just be coming down the road!

All my mowers recommend 10w30
Hey John is that the only recommendation in your manuals? Most manuals recommend 3-5 different oil types.
There's many but for the climate here that was the strongest recommendation @@GarageGear
Great video. Honda is out. Buy one or two to keep for future use?
Not a bad plan! 👍
Can you send a link to where super tech oil out performed mobile 1?
I’ll have to find it
What a 💩 winter in New England
Weird winter my friend! Next year could be awful ya never know!
@@GarageGear we haven’t had much since 2015. Here and there 12-14 inch storm but that’s far and space in between
I use a leaf blower to blow out under the cowling of my Cub Cadet and of course the rest of the mower. Good idea yeah. Peace
You got it Omni! Thanks for watching!

Do still the new 2023 toro super recycler?
Nope sold it last fall. Mowers come and go in this garage. Good ones stick around. Lol

thanks JB do you do anything with zero turn mowers? I have a toro
Hey smitty unfortunately I don’t! Would like to test some out though!
My lawnmower has 1030 conventional oil on it can I use super tech oil and my more it’s brand new but I guess they started it
You can use super tech!
I need to run 10w or 15w where I live because of the climate and run time or she will get pretty warm.
The new 190cc from Briggs looks awesome!
Thanks for sharing Mike! So far she’s running great too! 👍
same here. i use 10w30
You have more lawnmowers than snow blowers. Do you run a lawn care business?
Haha nope! They’re all for this channel! Probably could start a business though 🤔
I’m guessing the time master got sold? I don’t blame you about the supper recycler with the “baby stroller handle” so clunky to use.

Always recommended by small engines repair shops to never use Synthetic oils for small engines, SAE30 should be used for.

Can you suggest an oil that matches the one you use that I don't need to get at walmart?
It's my personal choice, I just don't shop there, ever.
