A neighbor was running his Craftsman LT1000 early last season and accidently ran the mower deck into a rock. The engine immediately started smoking and making bad noises so he shut it down and replaced the tractor. Fast forward a year and he was wondering what to do with this machine. I told him we would take a look and see if it can be saved.
Tractor Model: LT1000

I no longer use Harbor Freight Super Heavy Duty Degreaser in my ultrasonic cleaner. Harbor Freight changed the recipe. The bottle previously stated "NON-CORROSIVE". Now it says "CORROSIVE", "do not user on Aluminum". It now damages most carburetors. Recently I have been using Simple Green PRO HD with good results.
