Ever thoght about putting a Suzuki GSX engine in a ride on mower - that would give it a bit of zip - just watched last nights TT racing - they had a mobillity scooter that had some sort of four cylinder bike engine in it and wheely bars....interesting:blushing:

 

You love your mowers, don't you Barrie:thumbup:

I have a 343R, it's brilliant, husky have got the x-torq down to a fine art now, I would assume the 545R would pee all over my 343, so yes I rate them, more than an fs400/450 or those new ones

The switch has sliding contacts so is self cleaning though a little carb cleaner may clean it. Check the tab isn't fractured and is earthing OK and then check the wire that goes from the switch to the coil.

 

A multimeter makes all of this sooooo much easier

Could just be bent blades. At worst you have destroyed the bearings.

 

Best advice I can give is before you go taking it to pieces get it in the air somehow and just turn the blades by hand, see if they are bent. Then start by removing the belt and then checking the bearings.

 

It does save a lot of hassle at first by doing what you can without removing the deck.
