Morning all! Woo, Friday!

I have a small riding mower at home. Went to mow the lawn, and it was running rough, so I ordered up the usual wear item replacements - spark plug, fuel filter, fuel line, air filter, etc - swap those over, it's still running rough. Start checking over everything, and as I'm taking it apart, I see the breather hose is covered with tape (I bought the mower used maybe 2 years ago). Start unwinding the tape, and I see that the hose is basically completely decayed - cracked, broken, etc. What kind of moron tapes a $9 part instead of replacing it?? New one otw, but just surprised me.

Gotta love coming home from working all day and going back in and working all night only to find out you have no water from your deep well. Freaking spiders in the contacts. Sand the contacts, clean with brake cleaner, get rid of the cobwebs, and I am going to bed.

Is a well your main source of water?

Good morning, Pint. How are you and the family feeling? I am hoping much better!

Kiddo is definitely on the mend. I'm still dealing with cough. Overall we're just happy to be home.
