2 year old Husqvarna tiller is stuck hard in reverse. No problem with the tines or axle so I assume something Chinese in the tranny is seized up.

Sounds like I'm loading on the trailer and making some service guy happy!

I think we culled them all or they just got summer lockjaw a little early. Now all I catch are bass on the crappie jigs.

Sheet metal chain-driven crash gearboxes are junk, my little Troy-bilt Bronco has a cast iron spine with nothing but a shaft and two worm gears to worry about... In your case I think it's just a rebranded Ariens/Cub Cadet and parts are easy to get. Bet the selector shaft dropped a pin or the chain kinked. You might want to look around, those things aren't hard to work on and you might pay the cost of a new gearbox for a $6 part by taking it to a shop.

Thanks brother. Due to Trump, I have more money than time. I'm dropping it off in the AM

I'll trade ya my problems...

Been staying at Mom's in AR since Dad died trying to get that house ready for sale. Finally made it back to my place to finally cut the yard in between these monsoons.

Had to jump start lawn tractor. No problem cranked right up.

Noticed low tire so plugged in air compressor. Stick nozzle on tire get a little air in, remove from tire. Notice small metal object on the tire stem...it's the little pin from the compressor nozzle broken off. No more air available till replace hose/nozzle.

Oh well, time to mow...engage blades, smoke from belt and and engine chokes down. Rejump start slowly engage blades, more smoke and chokes down engine again.

Oh well, so much for the yard. More time to clean out fridge and freezer from power outage blowing the freezer control panel and causing spoilage of the contents + small amount of fungal growth. Fridge also has some grey stuff growing so everything in there trashed too.

Off to store for bleach and spray bottle. It's a lot more work than I thought taking apart the inside of Fridge/freezer combo in order to bleach wash it all. Today I get the freezer.

6 garbage bags full of food, condiments, empty soup stock containers to the dump. After I get the freezer cleaned up I can trim the shrubs in the flower bed out front. Then pick up the limbs from the yard including the near miss of roof damage on the storage building some limbs I cleared off yesterday since the ladder is right next to the lawnmower.

Oh well, stuff happens.
