[QUOTE="SkidRoe, post: 67950, member: 3290"] Good catch!! I recently had an interesting ordeal with a hose that I was glad appeared when it did. I had not used my machine in a couple of weeks and started it to move it out of the garage to get something out that was parked behind it. I left it running to charge the battery while I went back to the garage. About 2 minutes later, I glanced out at the machine to see it sitting in a pool of oil that was increasing quickly. I grabbed a pan (it was leaking all over my new concrete driveway), and ran out to shut it off. It turns out, the froward drive hose for the left motor had blown a hole in it. It was weird that it happened when it was not under load, but I was glad that I was not in the middle of a job when it went. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
