Got the mowing done with the MF12G. Started kind of late as father in law is in the hospital and if he got out today we were going to drive them home. They are keeping him in tonight too. Had a shoulder replacement but his oxygen levels are too low to leave yet.
Did my laundry while waiting for word from Loree. She got word about 2pm so it was time to fire up the old tractor and mow. Had a lot of rain last night so almost no dust at least. Sweat was another story---LOL!
This is the 9th mowing season on that Predator 13HP engine. Besides being rich at idle it has never given me any issues. Still seems as strong as the first time I mowed with it. Actually plowed s-word with it a couple years when the MF8E was down too. Ran and mowed great as usual.

Rich at idle? Tell me your secret, my 13 runs lean. I even up the main jet to 2 sizes bigger when I added the pod filter. Once I open exhaust, I'll probably need to go even bigger.
