I'm looking to upgrade and upsize my current mower to save some time while maintaining our property. I currently have an ancient Bush Hog brand 5' that I use with my 45 PTO HP Kubota. I've done some reading online and talked to the local Kubota dealer and most people seem to think I should be able to use up to a 7' mower. I wont be doing much heavy mowing, but do have about 30 acres of grass/hay that I'd like to continue to cut at least once per year. Around 20 acres is currently cut for hay in early summer, and I usually mow those fields once again in late fall/early winter. The remaining 10 acres is either in food plots or pasture type fields that were cleaned out with a skidsteer and forestry mulcher last summer. Do you all think that a 7' mower is sized right for the HP I have and the mowing I'll be doing? I looked at a Woods BB840X at a dealer this morning and am comfortable with the price he is asking. The only drawback I can see with the mower is that is has a single tail wheel. Any thoughts on a 7' mower with single tail wheel? There's another Woods 7' mower listed close by that is a dual tail wheel unit and I'm wondering if that would be the better option. Just looking for advice from those that have more experience than myself. Thanks.

I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
