Re: Vanguard 12.5HP/14HP/16HP/18HP carburetor cleaning
Matt , did you ever check your float height ? If too low it will also cause to run lean . Have you checked compression ? Have you tried a different set of spark plugs ?

Re: Oil Filter Examination
Is the material magnetic ? or not David the larger flakes were magnetic. The magnet had trouble picking up the very small pieces. Not sure if the small pieces are aluminum or just embedded into the filter media. Magnet material could be pretty much anything but the engine block. I did use a decentl...

Re: 444 deal or no deal
See if the mowing deck has the steel spindle housings or the cast aluminum housings which corrode. The steel housings fetch about $50 each.
