Title of the message: |
MTD lawn tractor design flaw?
|
Text of the message: |
A few months ago, we bought a house in New York with over 2 acres of landscaped yard. Obviously, I needed a lawn tractor to care for it, but I didn't want to spend too much money on it. I was happy to find a Troy-Bilt "Pony" (779) at Lowe's for a thousand bucks. For those who don't know, this is manufactured by MTD, the same company that makes the ultra high-end Cub Cadet lawn tractors. See: http://www.mtdproducts.com/home.jsp Overall, this Troy-Bilt "Pony" works pretty well. If it lasts a few years, I'll be happy with it. But it has a design flaw (IMHO) which MTD is not willing to acknowledge. The oil drain plug of the Briggs/Stratton engine sits right on top of a horizontal metal panel. The service requirements for this engine call for the oil to be changed after the first 5 hours of use, and then at certain intervals after that. (depending partly on how it is used) |
